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.

A comprehensive guide for drafting and revising high-level microarchitecture papers for top-tier conferences. It mandates the rigorous 'four-beat argument' structure: starting with characterization evidence, defining the insight, detailing the mechanism, and completing with thorough cost accounting. This ensures the paper is a defensible engineering argument.

This guide outlines the necessary steps to ensure that parallel computing performance papers are scientifically reproducible. Since parallel results depend heavily on machine architecture, topology, and runtime conditions, proper documentation must cover everything from CPU/GPU specifications and interconnects to thread pinning policies, random seeds, and compiler flags. The focus is on proving the scaling trend, not just the absolute numbers, allowing results to hold true across different hardware platforms.

This guide helps researchers determine the correct academic venue for their work in parallel and concurrent computing. It clarifies the scope of PPoPP versus related conferences (CGO, PLDI, ASPLOS, HPCA, POPL, etc.) by asking: 'Is the parallelism the point, or is it the setting?' Use this framework to distinguish contributions focused on parallel algorithms, compiler optimization, concurrency theory, or hardware microarchitecture.

This guide provides a systematic framework for authorized email security reviews. It covers advanced phishing analysis, including deep dives into email headers, assessing SPF/DKIM/DMARC compliance, identifying Business Email Compromise (BEC) patterns, and researching mailbox token abuse. It is essential for incident response, threat intelligence, and security architecture review.

This expert skill advises critical infrastructure owners and operators (pipelines, railroads, public transit) on complying with complex TSA cybersecurity directives. It provides deep knowledge of CRMP, CIP, CAP, IT/OT segmentation, and incident reporting protocols. Use it for gap assessments, policy drafting, and security architecture reviews related to transportation critical systems.
