SNUG Silicon Valley | March 30-31, 2022

Reflecting SNUG’s commitment to technical excellence, all conference user submissions are peer reviewed by the SNUG Technical Committee. If your proposal is accepted, a Technical Committee member will work with you to create and deliver an exceptional conference presentation.

SNUG Acceptance Criteria

1. Preliminary acceptance is based on the initial submission proposal and preliminary outline.
2. Final acceptance and the assignment of presentation spots at the conference are determined after the paper or presentation is complete, reviewed and approved by the Technical Committee.

The SNUG Technical Committee reviews and accepts submissions based on criteria that include:

• Technical Relevance:  Is the topic meaningful to other professionals?
• Technical Applicability:  Is the topic general enough to be helpful to other designers?
• Technical Completeness:  Is the topic explored completely? Does it detail the approach that you took to analyze and address your challenge?
• Are the problems and solutions well described?  Review lessons learned along the way (what was expected/unexpected, what went well/not so well).
• Is the conclusion well substantiated?  Why is your solution a good one? What can other designers take away and use in their work?
• What are some ongoing areas of development or next steps that you (or a peer) could pursue?
• General Readability:  Is the paper/presentation well organized? Is the paper/presentation grammatically correct and spelled correctly?
• Effective Summary  of your effort and results.
