HPCA Skills
A 12-skill depth pack for HPCA, the IEEE International Symposium on High-Performance Computer Architecture: venue fit in the four-venue architecture calendar, the mid-summer abstract+paper gate, simulation- and silicon-grade evaluation, double-blind review with a single rebuttal/revision window, IEEE-badged artifact evaluation, and the February/March conference. Grounded in HPCA 2026/2027 official
Skills in this plugin
4- ▌ Hpca Submission · brycewang-stanfordUse when auditing an HPCA submission for the two-step July gate on HotCRP, the 11-page main-body limit, the IEEE template, double-blind anonymity plus the all-authors reference rule, the AI-use disclosure, artifact-link scrubbing, and final-week sequencing before the paper deadline.
- ▌ Hpca Supplementary · brycewang-stanfordUse when deciding where HPCA material belongs across the four destinations the venue offers — the 11-page body, the anonymized artifact mirror, the staging shelf for the rebuttal/revision window, and the post-acceptance public release — while keeping anonymity intact and every reference author-complete.
- ▌ Hpca Writing Style · brycewang-stanfordUse when revising an HPCA paper for the mechanism-to-behavior first-page arc, a measured motivation before the fix, a checkable mechanism description, numbers that name their instrument, and 11-page compression that leaves slack for the single rebuttal/revision window.
- ▌ Hpca Topic Selection · brycewang-stanfordUse when deciding whether a project is HPCA-shaped or better routed to ISCA, MICRO, ASPLOS, or a systems/theory venue, weighing whether the machine, the mechanism, or the measurement is the contribution, and whether the main track or the HPCA Industry track fits, from the winter seat of the architecture calendar.
