Welcome to the MyReview web-based conference management system! This is a demo version that will help you to evaluate (and, hopefully, appreciate) the features of MyReview.

Customization

MyReview is a paper review system written with PHP and MySQL. It proposes the traditional functionalities of such systems (see the main site for a comparison), namely paper submission, reviewer assignment, discussion on conflicting reviews, selection of papers, mails sent to all actors, etc. One of its most salient features, though, is the ability to change the look-and-feel of the HTML pages, as well as all the static, textual information, independently from the PHP code. To do so, it relies on the templates mechanism of PHP which separates (almost) completely the PHP code from the HTML/images/JavaScript/Flash presentation.

Just try it: choose a presentation, which will be then applied to ALL the pages of the site. Select a template with the form below, GO!, and see the result.

Basic template: Standard template:
Convinced? Using this feature allows you to integrate smoothly the functionalities of MyReview in your own site: give your own template, and that's all. You can take a look at the simple template if you wish. Note the TITLE and BODY special elements. MyReview replaces these elements with dynamic content at run-time, depending on the context, content o the DB, user actions, etc. Templates quite be arbitrarily complex, as long as they contain the two elements at the appropriate location.

Try it!

You can play with all the functionalities, taking alternatively the role of the three main types of actors
  1. Authors As an author, you can submit an abstract for a paper that you intend to submit, unsing the abstract submission interface. . The system will provide you with an id and a password. You can then access the paper submission interface to upload the file of your complete paper.
  2. Reviewers As a reviewer, you can access the reviewing interface, download your papers, submit and update your reviews. You need a login and a password: use myreview@lri.fr and the password 08b271 for this demo.
  3. Administrator This is the most important role. Using the administrator interface You can configure the system, create new reviewers, enter research topics, evaluation criterias, papers' status codes for your conference, ask reviewers to select their preferred topics, assign manually or automatically papers to reviewers, consult the marks of papers, send mails to everybody, etc. The user myreview@lri.fr (with password 08b271) is an administrator for this demo site.
You can enter an abstract, then a paper, then, in the administrator's interface, create one or several reviewers, assign the papers, enter reviews, look at the status of papers, etc. Please remember that ALL the text can be changed without having to look at a single line of PHP code.
