Individual skill
fast-related-work
Use when positioning a USENIX FAST submission against the storage-systems literature across FAST, OSDI, ATC, SOSP, EuroSys, HotStorage, MSST, and the storage journals (ACM TOS), writing delta-first contrast rather than a citation catalog, keeping self-citations double-blind, and handling concurrent, preprint, and prior-version overlap.

# FAST Related Work
Use this to audit novelty and eligibility. FAST reviewers are close to the storage literature and
expect to see where your paper sits relative to the nearest prior work — stated as a **delta**, not a
list. Because many landmark storage systems appeared at OSDI, ATC, SOSP, or EuroSys rather than FAST,
covering the right lanes matters. Reopen the current call for concurrent-submission, anonymity, and
prior-publication rules before advising.
## Positioning checks
- **Separate the storage novelty from the engineering effort.** What is new: a design that exploits a
media property, a mechanism that removes a storage cost, a measurement method, a reliability
finding, or an evidence regime nobody had covered on real devices?
- **Cover the storage lanes.** FAST reviewers expect the storage venues *and* the storage-relevant
