On the Design and Implementation of a Market Mechanism for Peer Review and Publishing

sennoma — Sat, 25 Jul 2009 04:38:00 -0400

Traditional methods of peer review are coming under strain as the volume of manuscripts and the number of forums for manuscript submission rise. These pressures can result in poorer quality reviews, extended publication times, and higher costs to the organisations that fund research. In this paper we describe a method for reducing reviewing burden, expediting feedback and shortening publication times. Furthermore, by its nature, the method produces leading (as opposed to lagging/trailing) publication metrics for authors and the manuscripts they write, and we show how these metrics can be used by search engines to provide more useful orderings of search results. Finally, we briefly discuss the potential to apply the underlying mechanism of the method to application domains beyond research publishing, such as the web as a whole.

This study examines the costs and potential benefits of alternative models for scientific and scholarly publishing in the Netherlands. It is a follow-up of the Australian study ‘Research Communication Costs, Emerging Opportunities and Benefits’ (Houghton et al. 2006) and the UK/JISC study ‘Economic Implications of Alternative Scholarly Publishing Models’.

Current Trends in Biomedical Publishing and Bioinformatics: Some thoughts on Open Access publishing

sennoma — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 10:39:00 -0400

I've bookmarked both reports, this is just to remind me to actually read them: "The JISC ‘Economic implications of alternative scholarly publishing models’ and the RIN ‘Activities, costs and funding flows in the scholarly communications system in the UK’ both set out to identify opportunities arising from the shifts towards online publishing and various open access business models."
