This guide provides comprehensive strategies for drafting and revising highly technical academic papers for top-tier conferences like ASPLOS. It focuses on structuring the core argument around cross-layer insights, ensuring claims are quantifiable and bounded, and optimizing the entire manuscript to survive rapid peer review and strict page limitations.

This guide provides a detailed methodology for crafting formal academic responses after conference reviews (e.g., ATC). It distinguishes between the concise, evidence-based rebuttal—used to correct factual misreadings or supply missing measurements—and the structured description of changes, which serves as a point-by-point contract proving all required revisions were implemented. The core principles emphasize precision, supporting claims with concrete evidence, and maintaining academic anonymity.

A comprehensive guide for preparing the final, camera-ready version of a conference paper for top-tier venues like ACM SIGOPS ATC. This process goes beyond mere formatting, requiring the integration of all shepherd-mandated revisions, systematic de-anonymization (restoring authors, systems, and links), completing ACM Open Access metadata, and passing rigorous production checks for publication in the ACM Digital Library.

A comprehensive guide for authors writing related work sections for top-tier systems conferences (e.g., ATC). It teaches how to accurately position a new system relative to existing literature, emphasizing delta-first comparisons, covering adjacent subareas, and adhering to strict double-blind citation protocols. Essential for academic rigor in systems research.

A comprehensive guide for authors developing systems papers for major conferences (like ATC). It details how to build a reproducible story by pinning all environments (hardware, OS, toolchain, workload, code), providing turnkey one-command execution paths, and preparing a runnable, anonymized artifact package for academic review and evaluation.

This comprehensive guide provides an audit checklist for authors preparing submissions for major technical conferences like ATC/SIGOPS. It details critical requirements, including formatting for the paired extended abstract and full paper, adherence to strict page budgets, and essential steps for maintaining double-blind anonymity. Use this checklist before final submission to avoid common pitfalls and ensure readiness for the review process.

This guide provides a detailed framework for authors to strategically place content within technical conference papers. It outlines the distinct roles of the extended abstract, main body, appendix, and artifact, ensuring that all acceptance-critical information is positioned where reviewers are required to read it. Following these rules maximizes the paper's chances of successful peer review acceptance.

A comprehensive guide for researchers to determine the optimal venue for their computer systems paper. It teaches the critical differences between broad, practical conferences (like ATC) and selective, specialized venues (like OSDI, SOSP, or NSDI). The guide helps authors assess whether their work is novel, useful, focused on deployed experience, or requires specific networking/storage expertise.

A comprehensive guide detailing the end-to-end workflow for submitting research papers to top-tier academic conferences, such as the ACM SIGOPS ATC. It provides a backward planning structure, covering critical stages from initial system freezing and extended abstract writing, through multi-round peer review, rebuttal preparation, artifact evaluation, and final camera-ready submission.

This guide details the specific structure and rigor required for writing systems papers for top-tier academic conferences like ATC. It emphasizes the need for a self-standing, two-page abstract (Round One) and a full-paper narrative that is purely implementation and measurement driven. Key principles include quantifying costs alongside gains, structuring the narrative from problem to impact, and rigorously supporting claims with real-world evidence.

This skill guides authors through the unique requirements of submitting macro-policy research to venues like Brookings Papers on Economic Activity (BPEA). It serves as a comprehensive fit-check, covering journal positioning, evidence bar, required framing, and the conference/solicited submission workflow. Use it to re-frame academic work to meet the standards of real-time policy relevance and clear policy implication.

This guide models the complex and rigorous two-stage filtering process for submissions to the CAV conference. It details the partial double-anonymity, the core evaluation criteria (significance, soundness, novelty), and provides strategic advice on how authors should structure their paper to withstand early rejection, and how to use the rebuttal phase effectively.
