Research skills

Browse reusable Agent Skills, each with a clear purpose and practical guidance.

sigmetrics-review-process

Use 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, the 12-month resubmission bar, and how SIGMETRICS differs from IMC, SIGCOMM, and NSDI.

sigmetrics-topic-selection

Use 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 / Measurement & Applied Modeling / Learning / Operational Systems).

sigmod-related-work

Use when positioning a SIGMOD submission against the data-management literature, covering coverage across SIGMOD/PACMMOD, PVLDB, ICDE, TODS, and PODS lines, decades-deep systems history, concurrent papers in rolling venues, industrial-system citations, and PACMMOD's substantial-overlap exclusivity rule.

sigmod-reproducibility

Use when hardening the reproducibility story of a SIGMOD submission, covering PACMMOD's expectation that code, data, scripts, and notebooks be shared, experiment provenance from config to figure, dataset and workload disclosure, variance reporting for systems numbers, and alignment with later ARI badging.

sigmod-review-process

Use when reasoning about how a SIGMOD research paper moves through a PACMMOD round, covering double-anonymous CMT reviewing, the author feedback phase, accept/reject/revision verdicts, the one-month revision window, the 12-month rejection embargo, and how database PC members actually weigh evidence.

sigmod-supplementary

Use when deciding what accompanies a SIGMOD submission beyond the 12 pages, covering extended technical reports, anonymized code and data links that survive multi-round review, appendix placement relative to the unlimited reference pages, and what reviewers actually open during a PACMMOD round.

sigmod-topic-selection

Use when judging whether a project belongs at SIGMOD's research track, comparing it against PVLDB's rolling model, ICDE, PODS, KDD, CIDR, and TODS, weighing the industrial track for deployment papers, and testing whether the contribution is genuinely a data-management result rather than an application that touches data.

smj-data-analysis

Use when estimating models and defeating endogeneity for a Strategic Management Journal (SMJ) manuscript — the single highest bar at SMJ. Executes and stress-tests the identification design from smj-methods; it does not design the study or build exhibits.

smj-methods

Use when designing the research method for a Strategic Management Journal (SMJ) manuscript — sample, unit of analysis, measures, and the identification strategy. Designs the study; estimation and endogeneity execution live in smj-data-analysis.

smj-topic-selection

Use when scoping or pressure-testing whether a research question is a genuine *strategy* question fit for the Strategic Management Journal (SMJ). Decides fit and sharpens the question; it does not build the theory or run analysis.
