A comprehensive project management layer designed for navigating the entire academic conference lifecycle. It guides authors through critical phases, including topic selection, paper drafting, rigorous review response, camera-ready submission, and final presentation. The workflow emphasizes meticulous planning, role assignment, and maintaining academic integrity to prevent common project failures.

This comprehensive guide details the academic submission lifecycle for USENIX Security. It maps out the multi-stage review pipeline, from initial submission through early rejection to final notification. It critically updates authors on the current decision vocabulary (e.g., Shepherd Approval, retired major revisions), emphasizing mandatory review foci like ethics adequacy, threat-model realism, and openness posture for strategic planning.

A comprehensive project management guide for submitting academic papers, specifically tailored for the IEEE VIS conference cycle. It maps out all critical milestones, from initial area selection and abstract submission through to conditional acceptance revisions and final camera-ready preparation. Use this skill to responsibly plan for the annual cycle, manage reviewers' expectations, and mitigate common submission risks.

A comprehensive guide for authors submitting to academic conferences, addressing strict page limitations where appendices count against the core budget. It details best practices for distributing supplementary evidence across three external homes: the main paper, dedicated arXiv technical reports, and artifact repositories. The guide emphasizes maintaining self-containment, managing version discipline, and strategically cutting content to ensure the core claims are reviewable.

This comprehensive guide manages the entire project lifecycle for academic conference submissions, such as VLDB. It provides detailed methodologies for initial volume planning, computing optimal submission timelines (month-picking), coordinating group author contributions, and managing the revision bandwidth. It is essential for maintaining rigorous scheduling and mitigating the risk of missed deadlines in fast-paced research environments.

A comprehensive audit guide for submitting research papers to major Web Conferences (WWW). It details critical, irreversible steps such as author list freezing, restrictive page arithmetic (12 pages total), track selection protocols, anonymity checks, and managing submission caps. Essential reading for research teams preparing for demanding academic deadlines.

A comprehensive workflow guide for managing the entire academic research cycle of a major conference, such as the Web Conference. It details key milestones, backward planning strategies from abstract deadlines, fallback options (Short Papers, Web4Good), and capacity planning tips to ensure timely and successful submission and publication.

This comprehensive checklist guides researchers through the final stages of academic manuscript preparation for submission to major journals via platforms like ScholarOne. It covers critical technical requirements, including word count limits (12,500 words), abstract length (150 words), adherence to triple-blind anonymity standards, proper formatting (World Politics Style Sheet), and ethical compliance (APSA guidelines). Use this guide before hitting the submit button to minimize avoidable rejections.

This skill is essential for scholars working in Comparative Politics and International Relations. It guides the process of transforming single-case empirical findings into robust, portable theoretical arguments. By explicitly defining causal mechanisms, stating scope conditions, and identifying observable implications, the skill ensures the research contribution significantly advances theoretical debates across multiple cases or contexts.

This tool acts as the central orchestrator for academic manuscripts submitted to World Politics. It guides authors through the entire scholarly writing lifecycle, determining the correct article type (research vs. review), verifying the scope (must cross cases in comparative politics/IR), and routing the project to the appropriate specialized writing skills (e.g., theory building, data analysis, literature positioning). It ensures the work maintains a big, comparative, and international scope.

This skill guides legal scholars in transforming a broad legal topic into a single, sharp, contestable, and generalist thesis statement suitable for top-tier law journals. It forces the definition of the contribution's nature—whether descriptive, doctrinal, theoretical, or normative—and structures the argument into a clear, defensible 'contribution contract' for academic editors.

This skill provides a comprehensive guide for evaluating whether a research manuscript aligns with the scope, structure, and requirements of the journal *Soft Science*. It covers journal positioning, topic preferences, recommended writing structure, common rejection pitfalls, and strategic revision advice for academic papers focused on policy, regional development, and management decision-making.
