A comprehensive audit guide for submitting research papers to IEEE/ACM ASE conferences. It covers strict formatting rules (acmart template, page budget), mandatory Data Availability Statements, double-anonymous review compliance, and critical submission pitfalls like identity leaks and template errors. Use this checklist before uploading to HotCRP to maximize acceptance chances.

This guide outlines the critical rules for structuring technical research papers submitted to top-tier conferences like ASE. It emphasizes the 'decision-criticality' rule, instructing authors on how to separate core arguments (which must fit within the 10-page body) from reproduction details, raw logs, and supplementary material (the artifact). Mastering this separation is crucial for ensuring reviewers judge the paper on its merits, not its supplementary data.

This guide provides a tactical framework for drafting high-stakes author responses (rebuttals) to peer reviews in top-tier academic conferences. It details how to triage reviewer comments (factual errors, questions, disputes), structure the argument within strict word limits (e.g., 800 words), and maintain a professional, evidence-based tone to maximize the paper's chances of acceptance or major revision.

A comprehensive guide detailing the staged peer review pipeline for top-tier academic conferences. It analyzes stages from rapid screening to major revisions, providing actionable strategies for authors to maximize leverage, address reviewer concerns, and structure rebuttal responses effectively.

This guide provides best practices for organizing supplementary material and appendices in major conference submissions. It teaches authors how to maintain the core 11-page body's self-contained integrity while including necessary details (like full configurations, extended result grids, and full proofs) in appendices, ensuring the work remains robust even if reviewers do not read the supplemental content.

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 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.

A comprehensive guide detailing the rigorous two-round, double-blind review process for submissions to the ACM SIGOPS ATC. It outlines the strategic importance of the extended abstract, the role of the shepherd, and how the process differs from other top-tier systems conferences like OSDI and SOSP. Essential reading for authors aiming to publish high-quality systems research.

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 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.
