chi-artifact-evaluationUse when packaging the artifacts behind an ACM CHI paper — prototypes, study instruments, codebooks, datasets, analysis code — for anonymous review scrutiny and for post-acceptance archival release, in a venue with no formal artifact-evaluation committee doing it for you.
chi-author-responseUse when an ACM CHI paper receives a revise-and-resubmit invitation and the five-week window opens — planning the revision triage, making tracked changes reviewers can audit, and writing the response letter that carries the paper through round 2 and the PC meeting.
chi-camera-readyUse when preparing an accepted ACM CHI paper for publication — the TAPS source upload, the PCS publication-ready package, mandatory accessibility work (alt text, screen-reader-friendly PDFs, table headers), video previews, ACM's open-access model, e-rights, and registration deadlines.
chi-experimentsUse when designing or auditing the studies behind an ACM CHI paper — matching evidence shape to contribution type, powering quantitative experiments, making qualitative work rigorous and auditable, reporting participants and ethics properly, and avoiding the ADR-Data and ADR-Method screening grounds
chi-related-workUse when building the related-work section of an ACM CHI paper — covering the HCI venue family and the non-CS disciplines CHI draws on, positioning against the last few CHI cycles, keeping self-citation anonymous — in a venue where insufficient contextualization is the top assisted desk-reject groun
chi-reproducibilityUse when strengthening research transparency for an ACM CHI paper — protocols, instruments, codebooks, analysis scripts, preregistration, and data availability under human-subjects constraints — so methods survive the ADR-Method screening and others can actually build on the work.
chi-review-processUse when interpreting the ACM CHI Papers review pipeline — 1AC and 2AC roles, the A/ARR/RR/RRX/X recommendation scale, desk-reject and rubric-based assisted desk-reject screening, the revise-and-resubmit threshold, round-2 PC decisions — and what each stage means for authors.
chi-submissionUse when auditing an ACM CHI Papers submission for PCS readiness, covering the September full-paper deadline, the anonymized single-column template, word-count norms instead of page limits, subcommittee designation, supplementary and video upload, anonymization of external links, and CHI's desk-reje
chi-supplementaryUse when assembling supplementary materials for an ACM CHI submission — the video figure with mandatory closed captions, appendices, study instruments, code and data archives — all due with the paper on the single September deadline, anonymized end to end, plus the camera-ready video preview.
chi-topic-selectionUse when deciding whether a project belongs at ACM CHI, which of CHI's contribution types it makes, and which reviewing subcommittee should judge it — or whether the work is better routed to UIST, CSCW, DIS, IUI, ASSETS, IMWUT, or TOCHI before any drafting starts.
chi-workflowUse when planning an ACM CHI submission cycle end to end — the single September deadline, two-round review with a five-week revise-and-resubmit window, December decisions, the TAPS and publication-ready chain, and the May conference — with owners and risk buffers for each stage.
chi-writing-styleUse when drafting or revising the prose of an ACM CHI paper — contribution statements, structure for mixed reviewer audiences, participant voice, calibrated claims, accessible and bias-free writing, and length discipline in a venue that reviews words against contribution instead of pages.
