The 3rd Workshop on SErverless Systems, Applications and MEthodologies (SESAME) 

&

Serverless and ServerlessLLM Systems Tutorial

Submission Formats

The workshop will accept short papers and work-in-progress (WIP) talks:
- Short papers allow authors to present contributions in a short format of up to 6 pages. If accepted, short papers will have published proceedings via the ACM Digital Library upon the agreement of their authors (opting out is possible upon request);
- Work-In-Progress (WIP) papers are submitted as a 2-page extended abstract without published proceedings.

The dual submission format is designed to maximize participation and engagement. In particular, the dual format accommodates industry participants who may have limited resources to spend on writing the draft and the authors that may aim to publish a full conference paper later while simultaneously ensuring the maximizing benefit to the audience. The workshop will use a double-blind submission policy.

Optional appendix
Authors may optionally include an appendix (up to 3 pages for short papers and 1 page for WIP papers) as the last section of the manuscript; however, reviewers are not obliged to read the appendix. An appendix may include proofs of theorems, more details on methodology, more results, and anything else that can potentially answer reviewer questions. The rest of the manuscript may cite the appendix, but the paper should stand on its own without the appendix. Authors need not feel compelled to include an appendix – we understand the author's time is best spent on the main manuscript.

Declaring Conflicts of Interest
Authors must register all their conflicts on the paper submission site. Conflicts are needed to ensure appropriate assignment of reviewers. If a paper is found to have an undeclared conflict that causes a problem OR if a paper is found to declare false conflicts in order to abuse or “game” the review system, the paper may be summarily rejected.
Please declare a conflict of interest (COI) with the following for any author of your paper:
- Your Ph.D. advisor(s), post-doctoral advisor(s), Ph.D. students, and post-doctoral advisees, forever.
- Family relations by blood or marriage and close personal friends, forever (if they might be potential reviewers).
- People with whom you have collaborated in the last four years, including co-authors of accepted/rejected/pending papers, co-PIs of accepted/rejected/pending grant proposals.
- People who’s primary institution(s) were the same as your primary institution(s) in the last four years.
