Use when planning an ACM PODS project timeline across its multiple submission cycles per year, from venue fit through the EasyChair abstract-then-paper deadlines, the 48-hour rebuttal, the accept/reject/revision decision and shepherded revision round, PACMMOD-track publication, the arXiv full version, and presentation — with backward-planning offsets for a theory paper and honest handling of cycle choice.

# PODS Workflow

Use this as the project-management skill for a PODS submission. Replace every date with the current
official timetable and work backwards from the **abstract** deadline, which precedes the full-paper
deadline by about a week in each cycle. PODS runs **multiple submission cycles per year** and every
paper may hit a **revision** round with a shepherd, so plan for a two-round-per-cycle process, not a
single accept/reject.

PODS is a symposium whose papers are journal articles in the **PACMMOD PODS track**: it has **no
standing editor-in-chief** and no APC in the systems sense. Rotating leadership is the per-edition
PODS PC Chair (PODS 2026: Ke Yi, HKUST, verified 2026-07-09) appointed with ACM SIGMOD and SIGACT;
the cost model is registration and at least one author presents. Chairs rotate yearly — re-check the
organization page rather than carrying a name forward.
