Accepting & Delegating Reviews
If you are a TPC member with
primary review responsibilities, you will receive by the deadline,
your review assignments with upto 5 papers for which you are the TPC
lead reviewer and upto 12-15 papers for which you are the regular
reviewer. Please note that you will be assigned a regular review for
