Individual skill
micro-submission
Use when auditing a MICRO submission before HotCRP upload — the 11-page-plus-references limit with no appendix allowed, EDT (not AoE) deadline arithmetic, the abstract-registration gate a week before the paper, minimum 9pt fonts, mandatory page numbers, all-author reference entries, and MICRO's visual-plus-automated format inspection.

# MICRO Submission
Run this audit against the exact PDF headed to HotCRP. Anchors below are the MICRO
2026 (59th) cycle — CFP and submission guidelines at `microarch.org/micro59/submit/`,
checked 2026-07-08. Every number is a snapshot; reopen the current cycle's pages.
## Three traps that are specifically MICRO's
1. **Deadlines run on US Eastern time.** MICRO 2026 closed abstracts on March 31 and
papers on April 7, each at 11:59 PM **EDT**. Authors trained on AoE venues lose up
to a working day by assuming AoE. Convert to every co-author's timezone in writing
during deadline week.
2. **The abstract deadline is a registration gate, one week early.** No abstract in
HotCRP by the first date means no paper submission at all. Register placeholders
