Individual skill
dac-workflow
Use to plan a full ACM/IEEE Design Automation Conference (DAC) Research-Manuscript campaign backward from the mid-to-late-November manuscript deadline through the two-stage abstract-then-manuscript submission on Softconf, the winter review, the March notification, the April camera-ready and copyright for the ACM Digital Library, and the July conference in Long Beach — with the Engineering-Track and Late-Breaking-Results side calendars.

# DAC Workflow
Run the DAC year backward from the deadline. DAC's Research-Manuscript cycle is a **single annual
deadline in mid-to-late November** (DAC 2026: manuscript ~19 November 2025) leading to a **July**
conference (DAC 2026: Long Beach, California, 26-29 July 2026). Unlike the two-cycle software
venues, DAC gives you one archival shot per year, so the calendar is unforgiving. Every date below
is a **DAC 2026 snapshot** read on 2026-07-09; reopen the live event pages first
(`resources/official-source-map.md`).
## The two-stage submission (do not miss stage one)
DAC splits the research submission into **two stages on the Softconf/START system** (`dac26`):
- **Stage 1 — Abstract.** Register title, full abstract, and **all co-authors** roughly a week
