Abstract:
Programme chairs of scientific conferences face a tremendous time pressure. One of the most time-consuming steps during the conference workflow is assigning members of the international programme committee (IPC) to the received submissions. Finding the best-suited persons for reviewing strongly depends on how the paper matches the expertise of each IPC member. While various approaches like ”bidding” or ”topic matching” exist in order to make the knowledge of these expertises explicit, these approaches allocate a considerable amount of resources on the IPC member side. This paper introduces the Paper Rating and IPC Matching Tool (PRIMA), which reduces the workload for both - IPC members and chairs - to support and improve the assignment process.
