This skill provides a comprehensive guide for researchers to pressure-test whether their public administration project is suitable for the Journal of Public Administration Research and Theory (JPART). It emphasizes contributing to or testing public-management theory rather than merely presenting policy findings, helping users refine research questions and determine the most appropriate academic venue (JPART, PAR, JPAM, Governance).

A comprehensive guide for structuring a multi-study manuscript, particularly for high-tier journals. This skill focuses on building a coherent set of related studies—rather than a single experiment—to robustly test a major theory. It guides users through sequencing studies, determining necessary power, selecting appropriate designs (longitudinal, dyadic, experimental), and implementing preregistration to ensure convergence and internal validity.

A comprehensive guide for researchers determining if their academic research topic is suitable for specialized journals like Management Science. It helps assess decision relevance, departmental fit, and cross-disciplinary appeal, ensuring the work meets high standards and avoids desk rejection.

This guide assists researchers in determining the most appropriate conference venue for their mobile/wireless networking research. It provides specific criteria—such as contribution type, reliance on mobility, and evidence form—to help authors accurately route their work to venues like MobiCom, MobiSys, or SenSys, preventing submission mismatches and maximizing publication success.

A rigorous pre-submission assessment tool designed to stress-test scientific manuscripts against the high standards of top-tier journals (like Molecular Cell). It evaluates whether the molecular mechanism is deep, proven by orthogonal approaches, and possesses clear physiological relevance. It guides authors on strengthening gaps and determining the most appropriate scientific venue.

This skill is a comprehensive guide for evaluating whether a manuscript in ecology or evolutionary biology is appropriately positioned for Nature Ecology & Evolution. It helps authors check for conceptual novelty, methodological rigor (e.g., macroecology, phylogenetics), and broad scientific significance. Use this tool when determining the best target journal or restructuring the narrative to emphasize general, impactful scientific advances.

This guide assists researchers in determining whether a manuscript's topic, methodology, and theoretical contribution are appropriate for a specific theory-building management journal. It provides detailed criteria for evaluating conceptual relationships, suitable methods (SEM, experiment, case study), and appropriate re-routing suggestions for papers that are misaligned with the target journal's scope (e.g., pure math models, macro policy evaluation).

This comprehensive guide assists researchers in determining the appropriate scope and venue for their networked systems research. It details the core requirements for top-tier conferences like NSDI, distinguishing between Research, Operational Systems, and Frontiers tracks. Furthermore, it provides critical routing advice for differentiating contributions between related venues such as OSDI, SIGCOMM, and FAST, ensuring the work aligns with the correct technical focus.

This comprehensive guide assists reviewers and authors in determining the most appropriate venue for programming language research within the SIGPLAN community. It provides a detailed 'center-of-mass' test, helping categorize contributions based on whether they emphasize metatheory (POPL), performance engineering (PLDI), functional techniques (ICFCP), or the broad design scope characteristic of OOPSLA. It guides the decision-making process for academic submissions.

This tool acts as an orchestrator for manuscripts submitted to Public Opinion Quarterly (POQ). It guides authors through the entire academic writing lifecycle, determining the appropriate submission type (e.g., Original Article, Research Note) and routing them through the required methodological and structural stages, ensuring adherence to public opinion and survey standards.

This guide assists researchers in determining the topic suitability, appropriate format (research paper, review, special issue), and correct academic placement for manuscripts targeting 'Pattern Recognition and Artificial Intelligence' (PR&AI). It outlines the journal's focused scope across core AI domains like ML, CV, and NLP, helping authors avoid common submission pitfalls and ensuring their contribution has sufficient originality and academic depth.

This guide teaches the 'trust-minimum principle' for writing methods sections in short scientific letters (like PRL). It instructs authors on how to rigorously partition their work, keeping only the essential, trust-bearing details (setup, key controls, uncertainties) in the body, while relegating full derivations and extensive apparatus details to the Supplemental Material (SM). This ensures brevity without sacrificing scientific credibility.
