Many scientific journals have already moved to Web publication, but multiple concerns attend this conversion. In the past, publication in the sciences has assured that innovations and discoveries can be seen taking place along a continuum, each researcher building on the work of previous researchers. What effect does publishing on the Web and in other electronic forms have on this continuum? Three panelists – a technical-communications researcher, a scientific editor, and an engineering professor – address this question by considering the technological and other protections available to researchers. Scientific journals must also plan carefully for Web publication by allocating funds
for protection and proper archiving. View all 2240 works published by STC Proceedings |

Abstract: Many scientific journals have already moved to Web publication, but multiple concerns attend this conversion. In the past, publication in the sciences has assured that innovations and discoveries can be seen taking place along a continuum, each researcher building on the work of previous researchers. What effect does publishing on the Web and in other electronic forms have on this continuum? Three panelists – a technical-communications researcher, a scientific editor, and an engineering professor – address this question by considering the technological and other protections available to researchers. Scientific journals must also plan carefully for Web publication by allocating funds
for protection and proper archiving.
