Peer review is the main mechanism by which the software engineering community assesses the quality of scientific results. However, the rapid growth of paper submissions in software engineering venues has outpaced the availability of qualified reviewers, creating a growing imbalance that risks constraining and negatively impacting the long-term growth of the Software Engineering (SE) research community. Our vision of the Future of the SE research landscape involves a more scalable, inclusive, and resilient peer review process that incorporates additional mechanisms for: 1) attracting and training newcomers to serve as high-quality reviewers, 2) incentivizing more community members to serve as peer reviewers, and 3) cautiously integrating AI tools to support a high-quality review process.

翻译：同行评审是软件工程界评估科研成果质量的主要机制。然而，软件工程领域会议论文投稿量的快速增长已超过合格评审人员的供给，形成了日益加剧的供需失衡，这种状况可能制约并对软件工程研究社区的长期发展产生负面影响。我们对未来软件工程研究生态的愿景包含一个更具可扩展性、包容性和韧性的同行评审体系，该体系将整合以下补充机制：1）吸引并培训新生力量成为高质量评审人；2）激励更多社区成员承担同行评审工作；3）审慎引入人工智能工具以支持高质量评审流程。
