ACL Rolling Review (ARR) is a centralized peer review platform for top-tier conferences under the Association for Computational Linguistics, operating on the OpenReview platform with 2-month review cycles. It decouples reviewing from acceptance decisions, allowing authors to submit revised papers to subsequent cycles and choose among participating venues that review already-evaluated submissions.
