PPoPP Camera-Ready
Prepare the final version after acceptance (PPoPP 2026: final paper due 9 January 2026). The
camera-ready converts an anonymized submission into an archival ACM proceedings paper in the
two-column acmart sigplan format. It is separate from the artifact-evaluation deadline;
do not let one slip because you were focused on the other. Work through de-anonymization, ACM
metadata, and production checks methodically — a rushed camera-ready is where identity leaks and
rights errors happen.
De-anonymize systematically
The submission hid identity in several places; restore them all, deliberately:
[Authors] real names, affiliations, ORCIDs, contact author
[Machines] restore the named cluster/supercomputer/GPU facility you abstracted for review
[Acknowledgements] funding, grant numbers, facility allocations, collaborators
[Self-citation] switch "prior work [12]" back to "our prior work [12]" where accurate
[System names] restore the real name of your runtime/library/tool
[Artifact links] replace the anonymized artifact link with the public DOI archive
Do a reverse pass of the double-blind sweep you ran at submission: every place you removed identity now gets it back, and nowhere is left half-anonymized.
ACM rights and metadata
- Complete the ACM eRights process; paste the returned rights block, DOI, and conference
citation into the
acmartpreamble exactly as issued. - Set
\documentclass[sigplan,...]{acmart}per the current author kit; do not switch document class or column format at camera-ready. - Fill CCS Concepts and keywords — required ACM metadata that also feeds indexing; choose concepts under computing methodologies / parallel computing that match your contribution.
- Confirm the paper title, author order, and abstract match what was accepted; late changes need chair approval.
Artifact and badges
- If the artifact earned badges (Functional/Reusable and/or Results Reproduced), add the ACM badge images the AE chairs specify and cite the archived artifact.
- Add the Artifacts Available badge if you deposited the artifact and received the publisher-granted green badge from your DOI link.
- Replace every anonymized/placeholder link with the permanent DOI (Zenodo/figshare/Software Heritage); a personal GitHub URL is not archival and may rot before the proceedings do.
- Verify the paper's Data/Artifact Availability statement points at the final DOI, not a review-time placeholder.
Production checks for the two-column proceedings
[Class] acmart sigplan, current kit revision; no manual margin/font overrides
[Fonts] all embedded; check with pdffonts
[Figures] vector where possible; speedup curves legible at print size; no column overflow
[Color] readable in grayscale (many proceedings print/copy in B&W); don't encode data by hue alone
[References] full author lists (no "et al."); DOIs present; ACM reference format
[Metadata] rights block, DOI, CCS concepts, keywords, ORCIDs all filled
[Page count] within the camera-ready limit (the extra page some venues grant is cycle-specific — confirm)
Common camera-ready failures
- Half de-anonymized — real authors but a still-abstracted "an anonymous cluster," or a self-citation left in third person.
- Placeholder artifact link shipped to the archive — the anonymized URL never swapped for the DOI.
- Wrong
acmartmode — switching away fromsigplantwo-column, or overriding the template. - Rights block mismatch — DOI or conference string not the one ACM eRights issued.
- Grayscale-illegible plots — speedup lines distinguished only by color.
Calibration
- Confirm the exact camera-ready page limit and whether an extra page is granted this cycle.
- Confirm the current ACM author-kit
acmartrevision and the badge-image requirements with the AE chairs. - Keep the AE deadline and the camera-ready deadline on separate calendar entries.
Output format
[De-anon] authors/machines/acks/self-cites/system-names/artifact-link all restored? yes/no
[ACM metadata] rights block + DOI + CCS + keywords + ORCIDs filled? yes/no
[Artifact] DOI permanent, badges added as earned (incl. Available)? yes/no
[Production] acmart sigplan, fonts embedded, grayscale-legible, refs full, within page limit? yes/no
[Blockers] <ordered list before the camera-ready deadline>
