sigmetrics-artifact-evaluationUse when packaging an ACM SIGMETRICS artifact for the ACM Artifact Review and Badging scheme (Artifacts Available, Evaluated Functional and Reusable, Results Reproduced), covering what performance-evaluation evaluators check first (does the simulation regenerate the figures and match the analysis?),
sigmetrics-author-responseUse when responding to ACM SIGMETRICS reviews, covering any initial rebuttal and — distinctively — the one-shot revision response letter that must map every item on the reviewers' required-changes list to a concrete change in the revised POMACS paper, resubmitted to a subsequent rolling deadline and
sigmetrics-camera-readyUse when preparing an accepted ACM SIGMETRICS paper for its POMACS camera-ready, covering de-anonymization, the acmsmall template and POMACS journal metadata (DOI, ORCID, CCS concepts), incorporating the shepherd's required changes without scope creep, permanentizing artifact links, and the ACM arti
sigmetrics-experimentsUse when designing or auditing ACM SIGMETRICS evaluations, covering theorem-plus-validation rigor, stating and testing modeling assumptions, analysis-vs-simulation agreement, real workloads and traces, fairly tuned baselines, statistics and confidence intervals for stochastic systems, learning guara
sigmetrics-related-workUse when positioning an ACM SIGMETRICS submission against the performance-evaluation literature across SIGMETRICS/POMACS, Performance Evaluation, QUESTA, TON, and the systems/learning/measurement neighbors (NSDI/OSDI, IMC, NeurIPS/ICML), writing delta-first contrast rather than a citation catalog, k
sigmetrics-reproducibilityUse when strengthening ACM SIGMETRICS reproducibility, covering proofs and their assumptions as reproducible artifacts, seeded simulators whose figures regenerate and match the analysis, measurement/trace provenance, claim-to-evidence mapping, honest degrees of reproducibility, and consistency betwe
sigmetrics-review-processUse when reasoning about how an ACM SIGMETRICS submission is evaluated, covering the hybrid conference-journal model, double-anonymous review, the three first-round outcomes (Accept-with-shepherding / One-Shot Revision / Reject), the one-shot revision resubmitted to a subsequent rolling deadline, th
sigmetrics-submissionUse when auditing an ACM SIGMETRICS submission for HotCRP readiness, covering the choice among the three rolling deadlines (summer/fall/winter), the separate abstract-registration step, the 20-page single-column acmsmall budget plus unlimited references, double-anonymous review (and the Operational
sigmetrics-supplementaryUse when deciding what belongs in an ACM SIGMETRICS paper body versus its appendices and anonymized artifact, covering the 20-page single-column acmsmall budget, the rule that decision-critical claims (theorem statements, assumptions, headline validation) stay inside the reviewed pages, full proofs
sigmetrics-topic-selectionUse when deciding whether a computer-systems performance project belongs at ACM SIGMETRICS or should be routed to IMC, SIGCOMM/NSDI/OSDI, INFOCOM, a learning venue (NeurIPS/ICML), or a performance journal (Performance Evaluation/TON/QUESTA), and when picking the right SIGMETRICS track (Theory / Meas
sigmetrics-workflowUse when planning an ACM SIGMETRICS project timeline across the three rolling deadlines (summer/fall/winter), from venue fit through abstract registration, submission, shepherding, the one-shot revision round, POMACS publication, and presentation, with backward-planning offsets for a performance-eva
sigmetrics-writing-styleUse when revising an ACM SIGMETRICS paper for a rigorously stated performance contribution on the first page, explicit modeling assumptions and their validity, theorems paired with numerical/empirical validation, evidence proportional to the claim, double-anonymous wording, and disciplined use of th
