HSCC/ICCPS 2026 will employ light double-blind reviewing.
- Double-blind review process: Author names and institutions must be omitted, and references to authors’ own related work should be in the third person (e.g., not “We build on our previous work …” but rather “We build on the work of …”).
- Authors’ rebuttal process: The rebuttal process allows authors to respond to reviewers’ comments, clarify misunderstandings, and provide additional evidence before final acceptance decisions are made.
- Papers will be evaluated based on:
- Technical soundness and contribution
- Relevance to the chosen conference track
- Clarity of presentation
- Significance and impact
- Verifiability of claims
- Artifact evaluation of codebase and experiments.
