A comprehensive guide for computer science authors targeting high-performance parallel and distributed computing venues like HPDC. It assists in conference fit evaluation, manuscript re-framing (from journal/arXiv to conference narrative), identifying evidence gaps, and structuring contributions for optimal review success in cloud/HPC systems and distributed settings. Ideal for determining submission strategy.

A comprehensive guide for authors targeting ACM MobiCom. It assists in conference fit assessment, manuscript re-framing, and strengthening the evidence base for mobile networking and wireless systems papers. Learn how to position your work against specific venue requirements, distinguish contributions (e.g., networking vs. platform), and structure your paper for optimal review impact.

This guide provides a comprehensive framework for positioning mobile and embedded systems manuscripts for ACM MobiSys. It details venue fit, contribution framing, necessary real-device evidence, and how to differentiate the work from related conferences (e.g., MobiCom, UbiComp). Use this when your research value depends on surviving real-world device constraints, sensing, or edge computing environments.

This guide helps authors assess the suitability and optimal framing of their computer animation manuscript for the ACM SIGGRAPH/Eurographics Symposium on Computer Animation (SCA). It provides strategic advice on required evidence, scope calibration, contribution types (e.g., physics simulation, character motion, crowds), and how to position the work against top-tier CS conference standards. Use this when submitting animation-related research.

A comprehensive guide for positioning research manuscripts for the ACM SIGGRAPH I3D Symposium. It covers core topics like real-time rendering, interactive 3D systems, and GPU algorithms, advising authors on how to frame their work, structure evidence, and compare it against related academic venues to maximize submission success.

A comprehensive guide for authors targeting the Annual Computer Security Applications Conference (ACSAC). It helps assess the fit, scope, and required evidence for applied security papers, ensuring the manuscript is properly reframed from academic theory to deployable, operational defenses. Use this tool for venue selection and submission strategy.

This guide provides expert principles for designing and auditing system-level experiments in computer architecture (e.g., for ASPLOS-level conferences). It details the proper usage of various instruments—from real silicon and FPGAs to cycle-level simulators and analytical models—ensuring that every claim is matched to a valid, stated error model. It emphasizes workload selection, establishing strong baselines, performing rigorous ablation studies, and honestly reporting measurement noise and limitations to maintain scientific credibility.

This guide outlines the rigorous standards for evaluating systems research, particularly for top-tier conferences like ATC. It provides detailed instructions on designing reproducible experiments, establishing fair baselines, utilizing realistic workloads, and reporting critical metrics such as tail latency, variance, and resource cost, ensuring the highest level of scientific rigor.

This guide details the process of packaging and evaluating academic artifacts for ACM CCS conferences. It outlines the criteria for earning specific ACM badges (e.g., Functional, Reusable, Results Reproduced) by ensuring that supporting evidence—such as exploits, defenses, and measurement pipelines—is turnkey, reproducible, and rigorously documented for the review committee. It covers best practices for artifact planning, handling sensitive material, and justifying any withheld components.

Provides rigorous guidelines for conducting robust, verifiable, and reproducible evaluations in networking research. It emphasizes moving beyond simple simulations by demanding the use of real target platforms, documenting full system provenance (traces and configs), establishing honestly tuned baselines, and reporting detailed measurement statistics and uncertainty. Essential for authors aiming for top-tier conference submissions.

A comprehensive guide for drafting the Related Work section for top-tier networking conferences (e.g., CoNEXT, SIGCOMM). It emphasizes moving beyond simple literature summaries to create a 'delta argument'—clearly defining what the paper contributes over the closest prior work. Guidelines cover covering specific networking 'lanes' (like IMC, NSDI, SIGMETRICS), maintaining double-anonymous citations, and ensuring the contribution is concrete and testable.

This comprehensive guide details the academic review pipeline for CoNEXT conference submissions. It covers double-anonymous double-blind review, the two-round TPC process, and the critical nature of the one-shot "major revision," which functions similarly to a journal's revise-and-resubmit cycle. It provides authors with strategic insights to structure their research for rigorous academic scrutiny.
