ACM SoCC Review Process Guide
Guides academic researchers through the dual-anonymous review process, rebuttal strategy, and submission standards for ACM SoCC.
The ACM SoCC Review Process skill equips systems and cloud computing researchers with strategic guidance for publishing at the ACM Symposium on Cloud Computing. It details SoCC's unique dual-anonymous, two-round-per-year review cycle—including the strict rule against re-submitting rejected Round 1 papers to Round 2 in the same year. By analyzing the joint SIGMOD and SIGOPS reviewer pool, this skill helps authors balance systems deployment with data measurement rigor, structure high-impact rebuttals with crucial cost and tail-latency metrics, and benchmark submissions against peer venues like OSDI, NSDI, and EuroSys.
