ACL Rolling Review (ARR) is a centralized reviewing service targeting top-tier conferences
under the Association for Computational Linguistics.
- Built atop the OpenReview platform, ARR implements the initial stages of conference reviewing in 2 month cycles,
culminating in the release to authors of reviews and a metareview.
- Authors may submit a revision to a subsequent ARR cycle and request the same or new reviewers.
- Reviews are decoupled from acceptance decisions: as long as a paper has reviews and has not yet been accepted by a venue,
the authors can choose among participating venues, whose program committees will consider the already-reviewed papers for acceptance.
For further information about submitting, see the page for Authors.
ARR began with a 2020 proposal.
As of mid-2023, it has evolved with experience and feedback from the community.
In 2024, the ACL, EACL, NAACL, and EMNLP main conferences will use ARR as the sole submission system.
Other venues may adopt ARR as well. The ARR team continues to welcome input on the design of the review process.
