Evaluates research novelty and venue alignment for computer architecture submissions to ISCA, MICRO, HPCA, and ASPLOS.

ISCA Topic Selection provides a rigorous framework to assess whether a computer architecture research project aligns with the ACM/IEEE International Symposium on Computer Architecture (ISCA). It helps researchers isolate the hardware novelty of their work, run the 'center-of-gravity' test to distinguish machine-level contributions from software or circuit-level speedups, and evaluate track fit between the main and industry tracks. Additionally, the skill guides strategic submission timing across the four-venue architecture cycle (ISCA, MICRO, HPCA, and ASPLOS) to maximize publication success.
