EuroSys (EuroSys)
Conference positioning
EuroSys (EuroSys) is a top computer-science conference venue for European systems research across OS, distributed systems, storage, cloud, and systems security. It rewards a systems paper with implementation depth and systems-community relevance. Treat this skill as a fit / venue-selection / re-framing tool for conference submission strategy, not as a substitute for the current year's CFP, author kit, ethics policy, or submission portal.
Because CS conferences change deadlines, templates, page limits, review workflow, artifact rules, AI-use policy, and rebuttal formats every cycle, always verify the live official instructions before making a submission-ready recommendation. Start from the official source anchor recorded for this venue in ../../resources/conference-roster.md and ../../resources/official-source-map.md.
When to trigger
- The author names EuroSys / EuroSys as the target venue.
- A manuscript in European systems research across OS needs a conference-fit read before being formatted or submitted.
- The paper must be re-framed from journal style or arXiv style into a selective CS conference narrative.
- The author needs an evidence-gap, anonymity, artifact, rebuttal, or re-routing diagnosis for this venue.
Scope & topic fit
- Core fit: European systems research across OS, distributed systems, storage, cloud, and systems security.
- Best submissions make a precise contribution type visible: algorithm, theorem, system, dataset, benchmark, empirical finding, design artifact, tool, or socio-technical analysis.
- The paper should explain why the result matters to EuroSys's reviewers, not just why it is interesting to the authors' lab or product context.
- Position related work against the most recent conference-cycle papers in this venue and its closest siblings; stale comparisons are a common early-review weakness.
- If the contribution is interdisciplinary, state which part is CS research and which part is domain evidence.
Venue-specific calibration
- Reviewer lens: Treat EuroSys as European systems research: operating systems, distributed systems, storage, cloud, and systems security should be shown through built artifacts and workloads. Do not write it as a pure networking or architecture paper.
- Contribution hook to foreground: the venue-specific contribution bar.
- Scope vocabulary to use naturally in the abstract and introduction: European systems research across OS, distributed systems, storage, cloud, and systems security.
- Distinctive fingerprint for reviewer calibration: european, across, distributed, storage, cloud, security, venue-specific, contribution, eurosys.
- Official anchor domain: 2026.eurosys.org. Quote annual rules only after opening that source and the current-year CFP/author kit.
Close-neighbor routing guardrail
- Use this profile only when the manuscript's central contribution is genuinely in systems and the author can say why EuroSys reviewers are the primary audience, not merely a convenient deadline.
- Closest roster neighbors to compare before final routing:
acm-conext(CoNEXT),ieee- infocom(INFOCOM),usenix-annual-technical-conference(USENIX ATC),usenix-conference- on-file-and-storage-technologies(FAST). Break ties by contribution type, evidence shape, reviewer community, and the current official CFP from 2026.eurosys.org.
What distinguishes this venue from its closest siblings
- What EuroSys is. The ACM (SIGOPS Europe) flagship for computer systems broadly — OS, distributed systems, storage, virtualization, and systems for ML.
- vs the networking venues. SIGCOMM/INFOCOM/CoNEXT are networking-specific; bring OS/runtime/distributed-systems contributions to EuroSys.
- vs SOSP/OSDI. EuroSys is the European systems flagship alongside the USENIX/ACM OS venues; route by cycle, community, and systems sub-area rather than prestige.
EuroSys-specific routing detail
- Prefer EuroSys when the contribution is systems research for the European systems community: OS, distributed systems, storage, cloud, runtimes, or systems infrastructure with a built artifact.
- Route networking protocol/measurement to INFOCOM/SIGCOMM/CoNEXT, flagship USENIX/ACM systems to OSDI/SOSP/NSDI, and storage-specific work to FAST.
- EuroSys evidence should show system design, workload realism, implementation depth, performance/reliability tradeoffs, and operational constraints.
Method & evidence bar
- Build the artifact or prototype far enough that the core design can be measured under realistic workloads.
- Use appropriate baselines, sensitivity analyses, and workload characterization; systems reviewers look for hidden bottlenecks.
- Separate engineering effort from research contribution: name the abstraction, mechanism, or tradeoff.
- For EuroSys, the evidence must support the venue-specific signature: a systems paper with implementation depth and systems-community relevance.
- Include limitations, negative results, compute/resource reporting, data provenance, and ethics details when they affect the claim.
Structure & house style
- Start from a systems pain point and show why existing abstractions fail.
- Use evaluation sections that answer research questions, not a tour of every benchmark run.
- Use the current official template exactly; do not guess page limits, font sizes, supplement rules, anonymity exceptions, or camera-ready requirements from old cycles.
- The introduction should answer: problem, why now, what is new, why this venue, and what evidence proves the claim.
- Put the strongest result in the main paper, not only in the appendix or supplement; reviewers should not have to reconstruct the contribution.
Official-cycle checklist
- Open the live official venue page: https://2026.eurosys.org/
- Re-check the current cycle's CFP, author kit, submission system, abstract/paper deadlines, page limits, supplementary-material rules, anonymity policy, dual-submission policy, ethics policy, AI-use policy, artifact/code/data expectations, rebuttal/author-response format, and camera-ready requirements.
- Confirm the review workflow and portal: the current USENIX/ACM/IEEE author kit, artifact policy, and submission system.
- Check whether accepted papers require in-person presentation, separate registration, artifact badges, proceedings copyright, or post-acceptance release forms.
- If the live official instructions conflict with this skill, the official instructions win.
Pre-submission self-check
- One sentence states why this manuscript belongs at EuroSys, using the venue's scope rather than generic "top conference" language.
- The claim is calibrated to the evidence: no broader than the datasets, proofs, systems, user studies, deployments, or threat model support.
- Related work includes the nearest current-cycle systems papers and explains the technical delta.
- The paper satisfies the current official template, anonymity, ethics, artifact, and rebuttal requirements.
- The main paper is self-contained enough for reviewers to evaluate novelty and correctness without hunting through external links.
Common desk-reject triggers
- Toy implementation or microbenchmark-only evidence for a systems claim.
- No comparison to mature systems or no explanation of deployment constraints.
- Performance gains with unclear workload representativeness.
- Formatting, anonymity, dual-submission, external-link, or supplement violations under the current-year policy.
- A contribution framed for a neighboring field while giving EuroSys reviewers too little technical or empirical substance.
Re-routing decision
If the paper misses EuroSys's bar, compare against acm-symposium-on-operating-systems-principles / usenix-symposium-on-operating-systems-design-and-implementation / usenix-symposium-on-networked-systems-design-and-implementation / acm-sigcomm. Re-route based on contribution type, not prestige: theory to a theory venue, systems to a systems venue, application-heavy work to a domain venue, and early ideas to workshops or shorter tracks when the official CFP supports them.
