Author Center

The Author Center provides existing and prospective authors with all the help and resources they need to define, compose, and submit an article or manuscript for Communications of the ACM, the flagship publication of the ACM. Authors are encouraged to start with the Author Guidelines to better understand the scope of submissions and the competition for their acceptance. ACM Author Rights describes authors' rights management and Open Access options.
