acmmm-workflow

Use when planning the end-to-end ACM MM (ACM Multimedia) campaign calendar — from thematic-area scoping and track choice, through the April OpenReview abstract/paper/supplement chain, the June anonymous rebuttal, the July decision, the August camera-ready, and the November presentation in Rio, with the right skill invoked at each stage.

ACM MM Workflow

Use this to run an ACM Multimedia submission as a scheduled campaign rather than a deadline scramble. The SIGMM calendar has a long gap between the April submission chain and the July decision, so the work clusters at the front and the back.

The ACM MM calendar (2026 anchors, AoE)

Phase2026 dateWhat must be trueSkill
Scope + track choicepre-MarchContribution is cross-modal; thematic area and track chosenacmmm-topic-selection
Draft + evidenceMarchFirst page leads with the multimedia claim; ablations plannedacmmm-writing-style, acmmm-experiments

ConferenceNov 10–14Registered; media-ready talk/posteracmmm-camera-ready

Treat these dates as the 2026 snapshot; reopen the current site each cycle. Note the 2026 notification date was listed inconsistently (July 7 on the CFP vs. July 9 elsewhere).

Front-loaded work (before April)

The April chain is unforgiving because three deadlines land in eight days. Do the slow work early:

  • Lock the thematic area and track — they set format and blinding, and switching late is expensive.
  • Build the cross-modal evidence: matched baselines and the leave-one-modality-out ablation that proves the fusion matters.
  • Plan any user study now; recruiting raters cannot be done in the final week.
  • Draft so the first page already leads with the multimedia contribution.

The three-deadline sprint

T-14d: freeze claims; media assets rendering from scripts
T-7d:  body fits 6-8 sigconf pages; references on overflow pages only
Mar 25: abstract registered (do not miss the earliest deadline)
Apr 1:  paper PDF final, anonymous, metadata-clean
Apr 8:  supplement packaged, anonymous, media plays for a stranger

The long gap and the rebuttal

Between April and June, prepare the confirmatory experiments a reviewer is likely to ask for (the missing baseline, the extra ablation) so the June rebuttal is a matter of reporting results, not scrambling to run them.

Back end (July–November)

  • On acceptance, de-anonymize, complete ACM rights/CCS, and release the public artifact.
  • Register early and plan travel to Rio; visas and international logistics are the usual failure.
  • Build a presentation that plays the media — the seam between modalities should be seen/heard, not just described.
  • On rejection, use the reviews to re-target: MM Asia, ICMR, a workshop, or next year's MM.

Re-targeting after a rejection

An ACM MM rejection is not the end of the work. Match the reviews to the next move: a retrieval-leaning paper can go to ICMR; a systems-leaning one to MMSys; a regionally scoped or earlier-stage result to ACM Multimedia Asia or a workshop; a matured version to the ACM TOMM journal or next year's ACM MM. Fix the decisive critique — usually the cross-modal-significance one — before resubmitting anywhere.
