[Hotstorage-chairs] [HotStorage 2026] HotStorage’26 Camera-Ready Instructions

Sun Aug 16 02:39:16 EDT 2026

Dear Chenhao and Duo,
I am Seungkwan Kang, the submitting author of Paper #11, "The Host Is 
Not Idle: Computational SSDs for Host-Free Checkpointing in Multimodal 
LLM Training," and Paper #23, "GraceSSD: Per-File Reliability Hints for 
Error-Tolerant Machine Learning Storage". (hotstorage26-3, and 
hotstorage26-4, respectively)

After we completed the TAPS submissions for both papers, they were moved 
to "TAPS Support" status on 8/14 due to conversion errors. We have 
examined both flagged issues and believe they are false positives:

 1. hotstorage26-3 (Paper #11) was flagged with "\correspondingauthor
    not mapped for XML/HTML conversion" error. This command is defined
    in the official acmart template and is used as-is in the sample
    LaTeX files.
 2. hotstorage26-4 (Paper #23) was flagged for "TAPS incompatible
    packages: lstmisc.sty, lstlang1.sty" error. The packages are
    internal components of the "listings" package, which is on the TAPS
    accepted package list.

We have already contacted TAPS Support (tapssupport at aptaracorp.com 
<mailto:tapssupport at aptaracorp.com>) with the details above, asking them 
to review both submissions and resume processing, and we are ready to 
make adjustments if any genuinely unsupported construct is identified.

We are reporting this per the camera-ready instructions so that you are 
aware both papers are currently held at TAPS Support rather than pending 
action on our side. We will let you know as soon as processing resumes.

Thank you again for your continued support.

Best Regards,
Seungkwan Kang
