Skill UI

A comprehensive guide for authors submitting interactive system papers to UIST. It details the required narrative arc (walkthrough before mechanism), emphasizes technical specificity in implementation details, and provides rules for designing figures and structuring the argument within strict page limits.

A specialized guide for authors aiming to submit to the Conference on Uncertainty in Artificial Intelligence (UAI). It provides expert advice on framing the core contribution—such as probabilistic reasoning, causal inference, and uncertainty modeling—and calibrating the manuscript for highly technical, statistical ML reviewers. Use this skill to refine your submission strategy, identify evidence gaps, and properly position your work relative to other top-tier AI venues like AISTATS and IJCAI.

A comprehensive guide for positioning computer science manuscripts for top-tier security conferences like USENIX Security. It covers core topics (systems, network, privacy, software security), required evidence (rigorous artifact, measurement, vulnerability analysis), and strategic advice on framing the work to meet adversarial reviewer expectations. Ideal for authors preparing high-stakes academic submissions.

This skill acts as a comprehensive guide for authors targeting the USENIX Symposium on Networked Systems Design and Implementation (NSDI). It helps authors assess the fit of their research in networked, distributed, or cloud systems, providing strategic advice on paper reframing, required levels of evidence (e.g., real-scale deployment), and accurate positioning relative to closely related conferences like OSDI and SIGCOMM. It is a critical tool for optimizing conference submission chances.

This skill provides a comprehensive guide for authors targeting the USENIX Symposium on Operating Systems Design and Implementation (OSDI). It helps in positioning complex systems research, covering core scope areas like operating systems, distributed systems, and cloud infrastructure. It details how to frame the contribution, build evidence (artifacts, baselines), and distinguish the work from similar top-tier venues like SOSP and NSDI.

This guide provides comprehensive instructions for authors responding to peer reviews and engaging with a shepherd during major security symposium cycles (like USENIX Security). It details the technical mechanics of writing effective rebuttals, addressing compliance gaps (e.g., ethics/disclosure), and managing limited revisions during the post-acceptance shepherding phase.

Outlines the mandatory, multi-stage process for authors preparing final, camera-ready papers for USENIX Security. This guide covers critical post-acceptance steps, including de-anonymizing the manuscript, ensuring all mandated artifacts are permanently available (Open Science policy), updating ethical considerations, and meeting publication standards before final submission deadlines.

This guide covers the mandatory Open Science appendix for high-level security research. It instructs authors on enumerating all artifacts (code, datasets, configurations), documenting data withholding decisions, and implementing engineering controls (like environment pinning and version tracking) to ensure that published results are independently and reliably reproducible.

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.

This guide outlines the strict formatting and structural guidelines for submitting security conference papers (like USENIX Security). It helps authors determine which material—core mechanisms, proofs, or supplementary data—must remain in the main body to guarantee review visibility, versus what can be safely demoted to optional appendices or external artifacts.

A rigorous guide for drafting high-stakes, technical security papers for the USENIX Security Symposium. It mandates a threat-model-first structure, requiring authors to quantify all security claims with measurable data to avoid hyperbole. The guide also details integrating responsible disclosure narratives and adhering to strict academic formatting rules.

This guide provides a comprehensive framework for authors responding to major conference reviews (like IEEE VIS). It details the distinct strategies for both first-round rebuttals and mandatory second-round revisions (conditional accept). Learn how to structure summaries of changes, address technical critiques, maintain anonymity, and turn reviewer skepticism into acceptance.
