Use when reasoning about how an IEEE PerCom research submission is evaluated, covering double-blind review, the three-TPC-member model, the early-rejection stage, the single-round bounded rebuttal gated by a "weak accept," the accept/reject decision, and how PerCom's process differs from ACM UbiComp/IMWUT's journal revise cycle.

# PerCom Review Process

Model the pipeline before interpreting any single review. PerCom's process is a **single annual
review round with a bounded rebuttal and an early-rejection gate** — not a journal-style
revise-and-resubmit, and not a multi-deadline conference. The most consequential mental shift for
authors arriving from ACM UbiComp/IMWUT is that there is **no revise cycle**: the paper is judged
on what it submitted, with one bounded chance to answer questions.

## Process model

- Submission and review run on **HotCRP** with **double-blind** review: authors anonymize in good
  faith and cite their own prior work in the third person.
- Each reviewed paper is read by **three** TPC members, who weigh the significance of the
  pervasive-computing contribution, soundness of the method, quality and honesty of the evaluation
