Review contributions and add them to the program

Abstract reviewing

The review portal distributes contributions to the assigned reviewers. Assessment criteria, deadlines, comments and files are stored alongside each contribution. Program organizers then decide whether to accept, request revisions or reject it.

Assign, assess and decide on contributions

How abstract reviewing works

The structured assessment process begins after submission. Criteria, responsibilities and deadlines are defined, then reviewers work on their assigned contributions directly in the system. Assessments, comments and revisions remain centrally traceable and form the basis for the final decision and further program planning.

The review process

Reviewers mark passages and leave comments in the PDF editor. Internal notes can be kept separate from feedback for authors.

Clearly structured decision processes for every submission

Intuitive submission platform

Each submission is assessed by several reviewers. Individual decisions, such as accepted, revision required or rejected, can be recorded for each submission along with comments. Assessments are collected and structured to support an informed overall decision.

Intuitive submission platform
Direct feedback within the submission, precise and traceable

PDF comments in the integrated editor

The integrated editor lets reviewers add comments and annotations directly to PDF documents, making it suitable for reviewing manuscripts or posters. All feedback is collected centrally and provided to submitters together, in a clear, traceable form that supports revisions.

PDF comments in the integrated editor
For abstracts, manuscripts, posters or video contributions

A range of uses

The module supports reviewing abstracts before an event and assessing extensive content afterwards, for example when creating conference proceedings or digital archives. Review outcomes can be used for digital publications and printed formats, such as scientific manuscript collections, booklets or conference publications.
