This comprehensive guide assists authors in navigating the critical steps after manuscript acceptance in academic journals, particularly in CAD and Graphics. It covers de-anonymization (adding acknowledgments, funding, and real links), meticulous formatting checks, ensuring high print quality (resolution, color fidelity), rigorous proofreading protocols, and managing copyright requirements to ensure a smooth transition to final publication.

This guide provides authors with best practices for improving the reproducibility and verifiable availability of communication experiments for submission to JOC. It clarifies the journal's current status regarding artifact badges, offering actionable advice on openly sharing code, data, and simulation parameters to enhance credibility while maintaining academic rigor.

A comprehensive guide for responding to peer reviews and compiling revision manuscripts for high-impact academic journals, specifically tailored for the Journal on Communications (JOC). It teaches authors how to structure closed-loop responses (Opinion—Response—Location), maintain a professional tone, provide verifiable evidence, and systematically address complex or conflicting critiques throughout the multi-round publication process.

A detailed guide for structuring the 'Related Work' section of high-level academic manuscripts in communications engineering. It teaches authors to move beyond simple literature listing by focusing on the 'delta'—defining the gaps in existing research and clearly positioning the paper's unique contribution to ensure novelty and academic rigor for top-tier journals.

A comprehensive guide for researchers aiming to submit manuscripts to the Journal on Communications (JOC). It helps users assess if their topic fits the core communication discipline (theory, wireless, networking, security, signal processing) and distinguishes it from related academic journals. The guide also assists in selecting the appropriate article type and ensuring sufficient innovation and empirical rigor before submission.

A detailed guide on how to write a rigorous and comparative 'Related Work' section for top-tier microarchitecture conferences (e.g., MICRO). It teaches authors to structure the section as a 'mechanism taxonomy,' differentiating designs based on structural and cost differences rather than merely listing citations. Key areas covered include sweeping academic venues, integrating industry disclosures, and verifying all venue attributions using tools like dblp.

A comprehensive model detailing the entire academic review pipeline for microarchitecture papers, anchored to major conferences like MICRO. It outlines the timeline, from initial submission and double-blind review through the rebuttal/revision window, to final notification. The guide details what expert reviewers focus on—including mechanism novelty, methodology credibility, and cost honesty—providing authors with actionable strategies for strengthening their work through the academic publication lifecycle.

This guide maps out the complex, multi-year pipeline for submitting research papers to top-tier computer architecture conferences (e.g., MICRO, ISCA, ASPLOS, HPCA). It details the entire lifecycle, from initial abstract submission and revision through simulation, implementation, and final symposium presentation. It critically emphasizes that the evaluation schedule—the compute-bound sweep queues and simulation cycles—is the most critical path and primary bottleneck for academic research.

This guide details the rigorous process for packaging research artifacts in mobile communications for academic evaluation committees (AEC). It emphasizes creating a hardware-optional path, defining claims (badges), and ensuring reproducibility through smoke runs, recorded replay paths, and permanent DOI-backed archiving, allowing evaluation even without specialized lab equipment.

This comprehensive guide provides best practices and an audit checklist for designing robust, real-world experiments in mobile and wireless communication systems. It emphasizes moving beyond simulations, detailing necessary RF setups, quantifiable energy metrics, and reporting statistical distributions to ensure high academic credibility.

This comprehensive audit checklist guides authors through the final pre-upload steps for major academic conferences like MobiCom. It covers critical areas including HotCRP site confirmation, adherence to strict formatting rules (columns, page limits), maintaining double-blind anonymity, and mitigating wireless-specific identity leaks to ensure a smooth and compliant submission process.

Provides a comprehensive methodology for evaluating mobile computing systems. It mandates rigorous, real-device testing, focusing on instrumenting energy consumption, thermal behavior, latency distribution (tails), and memory limits. This guide ensures academic submissions are credible, repeatable, and compare performance against robust, tuned baselines.
