                | Reviewers' Guidelines |  
                | Invited to Review for IEEE 
				TechSym 2011 If you have been invited to review for 
				IEEE TechSym 2011, an account has been automatically generated 
				for you using the contact email as your account name (regardless 
				of whether you agreed to review or not). You need to only 
				request for a new password via "Reset your password". You will 
				receive the new password on your email. Please log in using the 
				new password and remember to change it to your favorable one 
				once logged in.
 
 Please add "cmt@microsoft.com" to your 
				list of safe senders to prevent important email announcements 
				from being blocked by spam filters.
 
 Conflict of interest domain
 When you log in for 
				the first time, you will be asked to enter your conflict domain 
				information. You will not be able to review any paper without 
				entering this information. This is necessary to ensure conflict 
				free reviewing of all papers. Typically if your affiliate 
				institution/organization provides official e-mail id as
				xyz@abc.com, your conflict domain is abc.com. Additionally if 
				your institution uses multiple domain names (xyz@abc.com and 
				xyz@abc.pqr.com) or you are associated with multiple 
				institutions/organizations, please enter all such information. 
				Please avoid entering commercial domain names (e.g., gmail.com, 
				yahoo.com, live.com, ieee.org etc.) as your conflict domain 
				since it would add to unnecessary complications during reviewer 
				assignment.
 
 Received 
				notification about papers assigned for review
 Once 
				you've been notified that the papers have been assigned to you, 
				please log in to the site. Click on "Paper Reviews and 
				Discussions". In the "Paper Reviews and Discussions" page, click 
				on "Download Assigned Papers". This allows you to download a zip 
				file containing all the papers plus supplementary files (if 
				available). If you observe any violations of 
				Editorial Policies
				or 
				Manuscript Preparation Guidelines, 
				(e.g., manuscript is not 
				blind-submission, authors have exceeded prescribed page limit of 
				6 pages, or authors have not followed an IEEE conference 
				template for manuscript preparation) please inform the track 
				chair.
 
 Reviewing 
				criteria and review submission
 For a paper, under 
				the review column, click "Add" (to the right of the "Review" 
				line) to review. The reviewing pane has certain questions which 
				are designed to help Technical Program Committee assess 
				suitability of selecting a paper for submission at the 
				symposium. Please substantiate your comment on originalty of 
				work presented in the manuscript, and appropriately mention 
				suspected sources of plagiarism as "Comments to Program Chair". 
				Motivating and serious feedback on the work presented in the 
				manuscript is highly encouraged and reviewers are suggested to 
				fill in the "Comments to Authors" section.
 
 Blind reviewing requirements
 Blind reviewing is an essential part of IEEE TechSym 2011. 
				Authors are asked to take reasonable efforts to hide their 
				identities, including not listing their names or affiliations 
				and omitting acknowledgments. This information will be included 
				during camera ready submission. Reviewers are also requested to 
				make all efforts to keep their identity invisible to the 
				authors. Refrain from saying, "you should have cited my paper 
				from 2006!"
 
 Submit 
				your reviews
 If you save your review as a draft, it 
				is visible only to you. You can access your draft review form by 
				clicking on the same "Add" link. To make the review visible to 
				the Technical Program Committee, click on the "Submit" button in 
				the review form.
 
 Ranking of Reviewed Submissions
 Once you've reviewed 
				the papers, you can rank them (the first being the best in your 
				batch). In the "Paper Reviews and Discussions" page, click on 
				"Edit Ranks" near the top of the page. In the "Edit Paper Ranks" 
				page, click on the "Start Ranking" link for the papers. Use the 
				"Move Up" and "Move Down" to adjust the ranks. Remember to click 
				on the "Save Changes" button.
