Use when handling the IEEE INFOCOM post-submission reality — that the venue has traditionally offered no author rebuttal — covering how to write a self-defending submission, how to read and act on an early-reject, what to do after a final reject, and how to use any response window a given cycle does introduce (verify per cycle).

Use this after submission, and — more importantly — *before* it. The distinctive INFOCOM fact is
that there is **traditionally no author rebuttal**: reviewer scores and TPC discussion decide, and
you usually never get a turn to reply. So the "author response" that matters most is the one you
bake into the PDF. This skill covers the defensive submission, the early-reject checkpoint, the
post-reject move, and any actual response window a cycle introduces (**待核实** each year).

## The response that counts: a self-defending submission
