Starting Comments

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.

SIGMETRICS

In reviewing, we seem particularly careful to make sure that the paper has at least one reviewer who knows the area very well. If it turns out at the PC meeting that somehow that was not the case, we always get an additional review from someone directly in the area.
