Use when reasoning about how an ASE (IEEE/ACM Automated Software Engineering) research submission is evaluated, covering double-anonymous review, the early-rejection stage before rebuttal, the Accept / Revision / Reject outcomes, the criteria-bound revision round, and how ASE's process differs from FSE's PACMSE Major Revision, ICSE's cycles, and ISSTA's rounds.

# ASE Review Process

Model the pipeline before interpreting any single review. ASE's process has **two distinctive
gates** that authors from a plain accept/reject conference miss: an **early-rejection stage** that
ends the process *before* rebuttal for the weakest papers, and a first-class **Revision** outcome
whose criteria are fixed in advance. Getting both wrong wastes the little leverage authors have.

## Process model

- Submission and review run on **HotCRP** with **double-anonymous** review: identities are hidden
  from reviewers, and authors reference their own prior work in the third person.
- Each paper receives multiple reviews scoring the **significance and soundness of the automation**,
  the quality of the evaluation on real subjects, threats to validity, clarity, and the Data
  Availability / artifact posture.
