Use when drafting ACM IMC author responses, covering the initial-review rebuttal and — distinctively — the One-Shot-Revision resubmission that must address a bounded set of action points, keep double-blind anonymity, satisfy the reviewer champion, and be re-judged by the same reviewers at the next deadline.

# IMC Author Response

Use this after IMC reviews are released. IMC has **two distinct speaking turns**, and conflating
them is a common mistake: a short initial rebuttal, and — if you receive a **One-Shot-Revision** —
a revised paper plus a change summary that the *same* reviewers re-read at the *next* deadline
against a *bounded* set of action points. Both must respect double-blind anonymity: no author,
institution, testbed, or vantage-point identity may leak.

## Triage (both turns)

- Answer what affects the decision: significance of the finding, vantage-point representativeness,
  ground truth, methodology soundness, confounds/limitations, **ethics**, and artifact
  availability.
- Use evidence that already exists or that the revision will concretely add — never a vague
