Use when drafting or revising an ISCA paper's prose — organizing 11 pages around one architectural insight, writing the motivation section from measured data, describing mechanisms at reviewer-checkable precision with figures that carry the design, and keeping quantitative claims calibrated to the instrument behind them.
