This is more negatively, called quick rejection. Papers must pass an initial review by two or three reviewers before being circulated for a full complement of five or six reviews.
SIGITE
- The only change we have made, starting with SIGITE 06, is to drop the requirement that authors first submit abstracts. Instead, we will be reviewing full papers only. The primary reason for this change has not been a problem with reviewer load. Rather, there is a feeling that potentially good papers were rejected because of poor abstracts.
SIGGRAPH, CHI, DAC, OOPSLA, SIGCSE
- None of these large conferences reported using or considering two-phase reviewing at this time.
ICSE
- ICSE has been using two-phase reviewing since 2004. The details of their review process are described in the survey.
