Open Peer Review …


Open Research ….

OPEN PEER REVIEW (2)Open peer review is an alternative to the

traditional scientific peer review process, in which reviewers' names are concealed from the public and from the authors of the work under review.

The traditional anonymous peer review has been criticized for its lack of accountability, possibility of abuse by reviewers, its possible bias and inconsistency, alongside other flaws.

Both processes are intended to subject the scholarly publications to the scrutiny of others who are experts in the same field. In response to these criticisms, other systems of peer review with various degrees of "openness" have been suggested.

OPEN PEER REVIEW (3)An extension of peer review beyond the

date of publication is Open Peer Commentary, whereby expert commentaries are solicited on published articles, and the authors are encouraged to respond.

PLOS ONE (1)

http://www.plosone.org/static/information.action

PLoS ONE (eISSN-1932-6203) is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access, online publication. PLoS ONE welcomes reports on primary research from any scientific discipline. It provides:

•Open-access—freely accessible online, authors retain copyright •Fast publication times •Peer review by expert, practicing researchers •Post-publication tools to indicate quality and impact •Community-based dialogue on articles •Worldwide media coverage

PLoS ONE is published by the Public Library of Science (PLoS), a nonprofit organization.

PLOS ONE (2)

http://www.plosone.org/static/information.action

PLoS ONE features reports of original research from all disciplines within science and medicine. By not excluding papers on the basis of subject area, PLoS ONE facilitates the discovery of the connections between papers whether within or between disciplines.

Too often a journal's decision to publish a paper is dominated by what the Editor’s think is interesting and will gain greater readership — both of which are subjective judgments and lead to decisions which are frustrating and delay the publication of your work.

PLoS ONE will rigorously peer-review your submissions and publish all papers that are judged to be technically sound. Judgments about the importance of any particular paper are then made after publication by the readership … .

TIER-BASED PEER REVIEW (1)

http://people.ccmr.cornell.edu/~ginsparg/blurb/pg02pr.html

Can Peer Review Be Better Focused? Paul Ginsparg / Cornell University

Abstract:If we were to start from scratch today to design a quality-controlled archive and distribution system for scientific and technical information, it could take a very different form from what has evolved in the past decade from pre-existing print infrastructure. Recent technological advances could provide not only more efficient means of accessing and navigating the information, but also more cost-effective means of authentication and quality control.




Two Separate DomainsStandard Tier

Any and all submissions would be accepted after a cursory examination of or other pro forma certification.

The review process could be “minimally labor-intensive, perhaps relying primarily on an automated check of author institutional affiliation, prior publication record, research grant status, or other related background; and involve human labor primarily to adjudicate incomplete or ambiguous results of an automated pass.”




Two Separate DomainsUpper Tier

“At some later point (which could vary from article to article, perhaps with no time limit), a much smaller set of articles would be selected for the full peer review process.

The initial selection criteria for this smaller set could be any of a variety of impact measures, to be determined, and based explicitly on their prior widespread and systematic availability and citability: e.g., reader nomination or rating, citation impact, usage statistics, editorial selection, ... .”

SEMANTIC (1) Semantic Publishing can be defined as “anything

that enhances the meaning of a published journal article, facilitates its automated discovery, enables its linking to semantically related articles, provides access to data within the article in actionable form, or facilitates integration of data between papers.

Among other things, it involves enriching the article with appropriate metadata that are amenable to automated processing and analysis, allowing enhanced verifiability of published information and providing the capacity for automated discovery and summarization.

http://tinyurl.com/c9zybh

SEMANTIC (2) These semantic enhancements increase the

intrinsic value of journal articles, by increasing the ease by which information, understanding and knowledge can be extracted.

They also enable the development of secondary services that can integrate information between such enhanced articles, providing additional business opportunities for the publishers involved.

Equally importantly, readers benefit from more rapid, more convenient and more complete access to reliable information.”

ECLECTICE Is For Everything:

The Extra-Ordinary, Evolutionary [E-]Journal An ever-increasing number of e-journals are transcending

the limitations of the paper medium by incorporating and integrating a wide variety of innovative electronic features and content.

In this article, we examine the current evolution of the scholarly journal and review the emergence of functionalities that expand and extend the conventional electronic journal.

We further explore additional e-journal enhancements and consider new forms and formats of scholarly communication likely to arise in the not-so-distant future.

Social Networking …


Social Software ….

A social network service focuses on building online communities of people who share interests and/or activities, or who are interested in exploring the interests and activities of others.

Most social network services are primarily Web-based and provide a collection of various ways for users to interact, such as chat, messaging, email, video, voice chat, file sharing, blogging, discussion groups, … [etc.].

SOCIAL NETWORKING (2) The main types of social networking services are those which contain category divisions (such as former school-year or classmates), means to connect with friends (usually with self-description pages) and a recommendation system linked to trust. Popular methods now combine many of these, with Facebook widely used worldwide; MySpace, Twitter and LinkedIn being the most widely used in North America; Nexopia (mostly in Canada); Bebo,Hi5, MySpace, dol2day (mostly in Germany), Tagged, XING;[ and Skyrock in parts of Europe; Orkut and Hi5 in South America and Central America; and Friendster, Multiply, Orkut, Wretch, Xiaonei and Cyworld in Asia and the Pacific Islands.

SciSpace.net

Scispace.net is a non-commercial, non-profit and free-to-use

social network service designed specifically for collaborating

researchers. In several respects it builds on many of the tools

found in standard social network service and elearning

sites, such as the use of wikis, blogs, comments, tags, comment

walls, and profiles.

However, unlike many of these sites, privacy and fine

grained access control is of paramount importance. For

example, a small group of researchers using these tools. To

develop a set of ideas that will ultimately lead to a publication

or funding proposal need to be certain that their ideas, and the

existence of these ideas, will not be seen by others.

SCISPACE.NET (1)

http://www.scispace.net/

Until the advent of social network service and related Web

2.0 technologies, the primary tool for collaborators has been

email, which the owners/authors feel serves this purpose only

poorly.

Scispace.net has been developed by scientists working

within an academic environment, but the owners/authors

believe that this approach should be able to meet the

needs of collaborators working in different disciplines

and different environments.

In many ways scispace.net is an active experiment in

how these tools can be used to support collaborative

research, in what is actually a fast changing environment.

The Social Science Research Network (SSRN) is a website

devoted to the rapid dissemination of scholarly research in the

social sciences and humanities. SSRN is viewed as particularly

strong in the fields of economics, finance, accounting,

management, and law.

SOCIAL SCIENCE RESEARCH NETWORK (1)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Science_Research_Network

Since its foundation in 1994, SSRN has grown in importance

in the academic community. In economics, and to some degree

in Law … almost all papers are now first published as preprints

on SSRN and/or on other paper distribution networks such as

RePEc before being submitted to an academic journal.

Academic papers can be uploaded directly to the site by authors

as PDF documents. All author-uploaded papers are available for

worldwide free downloading.

Users can also subscribe to abstracting e-mail journals covering

a broad range of subject matters. These eJournals then periodically

distribute emails containing abstracts (with links to the full text

where applicable) of papers recently submitted to SSRN in the

respective field.



On SSRN, authors and papers are ranked by their number of

downloads, which has become an informal indicator of

popularity on prepress and open access sites.

SSRN, like other preprint services, circulates publications

throughout the scholarly community at an early stage,

permitting the author to incorporate comments into the final

version of the paper before its publication in a journal.



The SSRN eLibrary consists of two parts: an Abstract Database

containing abstracts on over 233,600 scholarly working papers and

forthcoming papers and an Electronic Paper Collection currently

containing over 191,600 downloadable full text documents in Adobe

Acrobat pdf format.The eLibrary also includes the research papers

of a number of Fee Based Partner Publications.

The Networks encourage readers to communicate directly with

authors and other subscribers concerning their own and others‘

research. To facilitate this we publish detailed author contact

information including email addresses for authors of each paper. We

also provide electronic delivery of the papers when authors wish us

to do sofrom the SSRN eLibrary.

Wikis

A wiki is a website that uses wiki software, allowing the easy creation and editing of any number of interlinked Web pages using a simplified markup language or a WYSIWYG text editor, within the browser.

Wikis are often used to create collaborative websites and to power community websites. The collaborative encyclopedia Wikipedia is one of the best-known wikis.

Wikis are used in business to provide intranet and knowledge management systems.

Ward Cunningham, the developer of the first wiki software, WikiWikiWeb, originally described it as "the simplest online database that could possibly work.

"Wiki" … is a Hawaiian word for "fast".
