"description": "Use when drafting a MobiSys rebuttal after round-2 reviews — working within the scope limit (correct factual errors, answer specific reviewer questions), adding only directly-responsive new results, promising camera-ready work honestly, staying double-blind, and giving the area chair a clean rationale for a mobile-systems accept decision."

MobiSys Author Response
Use this after MobiSys round-2 reviews are released. Reopen the current rebuttal instructions and length limit before drafting, because scope and mechanics are cycle-specific. The MobiSys rebuttal is narrow by design: it is not a revision and not a place to reargue the paper.
Scope discipline
- The rebuttal is for correcting factual errors in the reviews and answering specific questions reviewers posed. Stay inside that scope.
- New experiments are admissible only if they directly address reviewer feedback; alternatively, you may promise results expected by the camera-ready deadline — but only ones you can actually deliver.
- Keep the reply double-blind: no institution, authorship, private repository, or identity-revealing device/account detail.
- Use existing submitted evidence first: figures, appendix tables, device provenance, and the artifact — point to them precisely rather than restating them.
Triage
- Answer concerns that affect the decision: is the system real, is the on-device evidence sufficient, is the energy/latency claim defensible, is the contribution a system.
- Correct factual misreadings first (a reviewer who thinks you tested one device when you tested four), then address requests for a missing baseline, an energy boundary, or a break-condition experiment.
- One decision-critical point per reviewer beats an exhaustive reply; the AC reads for whether the central objection was actually resolved.
Drafting pattern
- State the decision-critical correction or concession first.
- Point to exact submitted evidence (figure, table, appendix, artifact).
- Explain the systems consequence — what it means for the device claim.
- Promise a camera-ready fix only if it adds no unsupported claim and you can deliver it.
Systems-reviewer pushback patterns
| Pushback | What it signals | MobiSys-ready fix |
|---|---|---|
| "Evaluated on one device" | Generalization doubt | Point to the multi-device table, or promise the added device honestly |
| "Energy numbers are unconvincing" | Undefined instrument/boundary | Name the power monitor, sampling rate, and envelope already in App. A |
| "Only a 30-second benchmark" | Throttling hidden | Reference the sustained-load run and thermal trace, or promise one |
| "This is a better model, not a system" | Fit doubt | Re-anchor the contribution as the runtime/scheduling mechanism, with the ablation that isolates it |
Response micro-example
Reviewer objection: the latency win might vanish once the device throttles. Reply skeleton:
- Concede the concern is the right one to raise for sustained load.
- Point to the 20-minute run in Fig. 1 and the thermal trace in App. A, already submitted.
- Note the win holds to steady state on all four devices, with the numbers regenerable from the artifact.
- Offer one camera-ready sentence making the steady-state result explicit in the body.
Output format
[Priority issue] <reviewer concern>

[Draft response] <MobiSys-ready anonymous text within scope>
[Evidence anchor] <figure/table/appendix/artifact item>
[Out-of-scope content removed] <reargument, identity leaks, undeliverable promises>
