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.

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 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.

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.

Provides guidelines for creating robust, verifiable, and reusable Electronic Design Automation (EDA) artifacts for submission to academic conferences like DAC. The focus shifts from chasing conference badges to ensuring community trust and scientific reproducibility. Key elements include pinning the toolchain, using standard benchmarks, providing clear setup instructions, and archiving the release in a DOI-issuing repository.

A detailed guide on how to structure and position the 'Related Work' section for high-stakes academic conferences like DAC, ICCAD, and DATE. It teaches authors to move beyond simple surveys and instead create a 'delta statement,' explicitly defining the limitations of prior art and quantifying the unique advances of the current work in terms of Quality of Results (QoR).

This comprehensive guide provides a detailed audit checklist for submitting research manuscripts to major design automation conferences (e.g., DAC). It covers critical steps such as the two-stage abstract/manuscript timeline, adherence to the strict 6+1 page format, ensuring double-blind anonymization (removing all identifying metadata), declaring TPC conflicts, and mitigating common submission risks. Essential reading for researchers preparing for high-stakes academic submissions.

This guide meticulously models the rigorous decision-making machinery of top-tier academic conferences, using EuroSys as a detailed example. It covers the two-round submission cycle, the 'Accept/Revise/Reject' outcome logic, double-blind review mechanics, and critical criteria (like deployment plausibility and verifiable fairness) that determine a paper's success. Ideal for researchers and graduate students preparing systems research submissions.

A comprehensive guide for drafting and revising top-tier systems papers, specifically for conferences like EuroSys. It details the required academic structure, including building the problem-to-mechanism arc, managing the 12-page technical budget, writing rigorous evaluation sections (including measuring failure cases), and maintaining the necessary double-blind academic voice.

A comprehensive audit checklist for submitting a paper to the HPCA conference. This guide covers critical checkpoints including the two-step abstract-and-conflict registration, adherence to the IEEE template (11-page limit), maintaining double-blind anonymity, ensuring full author listing in references, and disclosing AI-generated content. Use this to mitigate desk-reject risks and ensure timely submission readiness.

This guide provides a specialized framework for authors targeting the IACR Conference on Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems (CHES). It details the specific scope, evidence bar, and framing techniques required for cryptographic hardware papers, ensuring submissions meet the high standards of the community. It helps reposition work from journal or general CS styles.

A comprehensive guide for authors submitting to major signal processing conferences like ICASSP. It details how to audit, define, and precisely position a paper's novelty by comparing it against specific literature lanes (SPS journals, conferences, and ML venues). Learn to articulate the technical delta against the nearest work in a constrained, four-page format.
