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.

A comprehensive guide detailing the complex, multi-stage workflow for submitting a systems paper to a major academic conference (like ASPLOS). It maps out timelines across two submission gates, revision cycles, hardware evidence gathering (T-8 to T-2), and critical role assignments required to successfully navigate the intense academic publication process.

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.

A structural guide for authors writing for top-tier organizational theory journals, such as ASQ. It teaches how to elevate the literature review from a simple annotated list to an explicit, argumentative entry that names a specific scholarly conversation, identifies a theoretical tension, and sharply defines the paper's unique contribution. This is crucial for passing peer review.

This guide provides a comprehensive framework for drafting a rebuttal letter to an academic journal (such as ASQ) after a major revision request. It teaches the critical process of structuring a point-by-point response, gracefully addressing conflicting reviewer opinions, and articulating how the paper's theoretical contribution has deepened to satisfy high academic standards. The focus is on professional communication and scholarly argumentation.

This guide provides a comprehensive strategy for writing a response letter following an American Sociological Review (ASR) revise-and-resubmit (R&R). It addresses handling conflicting reviewer feedback, structuring the response to satisfy both reviewers and the editor, and protecting the core contribution of the paper through robust argumentation and evidence.

This skill guides scholars in rigorously evaluating whether a sociology project or paper is suitable for the American Sociological Review (ASR). It focuses on testing the work's broad significance, theoretical payoff across subfields, and structural fit, distinguishing between full articles and focused comments/replies. Use this before significant research investment.

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.
