Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

For a scholar, rejection is not uncommon.

Regardless of fame or achievements made in the past, if the journal is not selected correctly, or the results do not meet the criteria for publication, the manuscript may be returned at a certain stage of review.

However, the retracted manuscripts that have already been published are not available to everyone.

Don't discuss the water journals that have broken jars, and those manuscripts that are still in line. For papers that have already been published, each withdrawal is a great blow to the credibility of the journal, because it is equivalent to Public acknowledgement of major and irreparable errors in published papers.

Therefore, in general, journals are very cautious about withdrawing published papers unless there is serious academic fraud or other things that damage the reputation of scholars.

At the time, the Nobel Prize-winning academic fraud that caused a sensation in biology at the time-the incident of Haruka Fou Haruko, even though the entire academic community had determined that her experimental results were derived from P and P, but in the end, the Japanese National Institute of Physics and Chemistry could not resist the pressure to come forward, Bao Fang himself obtained written controversy on the withdrawal of the STAP cell paper before allowing Nature to withdraw the controversial manuscript.

Although things in the biological world and the field of integrated circuit design cannot be compared horizontally, the IEEE has ended abruptly withdrawing manuscripts in the report, which is indeed quite unusual.

In short, following the first rejection of a manuscript in his life, this time even the withdrawal was scheduled. Lu Zhou felt that his academic career was probably no regret.

However, this is the first time that he has submitted an article in an IEEE-affiliated journal. This kind of journals, which are biased towards the electrical and electronic engineering fields of engineering, has a long way to go. Although a top-level publication in the field of electrical engineering had previously sent a contract email, hoping that he could publish a paper on controllable fusion technology, but considering that this technology involved a lot of things after all, he finally declined politely.

I didn't expect my name to be kicked back for the first time at the IEEE summit, but also for ridiculous reasons such as "academic deception" and "falsified experimental data."

After seeing the written notice of withdrawal sent by IEEE, Lu Zhou was in a state of emotion.

Heaven and earth conscience, is he the kind of person who will joke on experimental data?

He is not sure how much influence this international integrated circuit design and technology conference has in the industry, and it is not because of that ridiculous reason that made him sigh, but over the years he has increasingly felt that academic purity And justice is more and more like a piece of ass.

When the United States and the Soviet Union were engaged in an arms race, they would not be like this ...

"I heard you were retracted?"

Sitting on the sofa in the office of the President of the Institute of Advanced Studies, when talking about this, Chen Yushan had a narrow smile on her face.

Seeing her gloating look, Lu Zhou sighed and made a helpless expression, saying, "I've been retracted. Are you so happy?"

"What are you talking about, how could I be gloating? It's just a rare surprise to see you eat."

Lu Zhou ridiculed himself and said, "It is impossible to talk about eating, but it was so easy to miss the face on the IEEE and was driven back by others."

Chen Yushan: "Did they ask you to revise the paper or something?"

"The retraction notice euphemistically made me modify the experimental data that looked a little 'exaggerated'. But they didn't say where the exaggeration was, and I'm even sure they didn't repeat the experiment because there was no such condition."

Chen Yushan asked curiously, "Are you planning to change?"

"Change?" Lu Zhou smiled lightly when he heard this question, and said indifferently, "Why should something be changed?"

Cooperating with the reviewer's comments to modify the obvious or easily misunderstood errors is another matter. This ambiguous or even false allegation, to be honest, he did not take it seriously.

Looking at the expression on the landing boat's face, Chen Yushan could not help bending her mouth.

"It's worthy of learning, this sentence is quite your style."

Lu Zhou smiled and said, "What does this have to do with Xueba."

"It doesn't matter how it is? Do you think that when I was studying, weren't all dare to talk back to the teacher on the standard answer? If you studied scum, the teacher said that he was wrong, I was afraid he would admit it Now. "

"Where and where is this?" Listening to this strange metaphor, Lu Zhou sighed, "And you are too exaggerated to compare IEEE as a teacher, they are not qualified enough."

"It's just a metaphor. It's all about me," rolled his eyes, Chen Yushan's eyes rolled down, suddenly a thought popped up in his head, and he suddenly thought, "Speaking, have you considered yourself? Start a journal? "

Lu Zhou nodded and said, "Before leaving yesterday, the Warwick boss talked to me about this issue."

In fact, it's not just the Warwick boss who talked to him about this issue, but his old friends in the domestic academic circles talked to him about it during gossip, but he was troublesome and not too relaxed In my heart.

After all, in his opinion, where the paper is submitted is secondary, what is important is the paper itself. An outstanding research result, even if it is hung on Arxiv, will definitely attract people's attention.

Only those research results that are not particularly important or even dispensable need to reflect their value through the authority of the journal itself.

But now, his idea may still be a little too idealistic.

Although the journal is just a platform to publish academic results, it is still somewhat restricted to use other people's microphones to speak. Even if these restrictions are not manifested under normal circumstances, ordinary people can't come out to unplug the microphone and drive the speaker out of these disgusting and inferior things, but it is clear that the IEEE has penetrated this bottom line.

Perhaps, you should really consider ~ www.readwn.com ~ to run an academic journal and play for yourself.

"Wang Zhengfei told you this question?" Suddenly glanced at Lu Zhou, Chen Yushan asked curiously, "What did he say?"

Lu Zhou thought for a while, and reiterated: "He said that carbon-based chips are something we have made after all, and it is a bit inappropriate for others to review the manuscript. Now it is not that there is no research in the direction of carbon-based integrated circuits in the world. Yes, but most research institutions and scholars' understanding of this stuff is still at the theoretical level. Asking their opinions may be too difficult for some people. "

Nodded thoughtfully, Chen Yushan said, "I think so too ... what do you mean?"

"I think he makes some sense."

Speaking here for a moment, Lu Zhou smiled lightly and continued, "I think back carefully, our Jinling Institute of Higher Education has been established for so long, and there is not even a college-run journal. It seems that there is really no license. A little bit. "

"I intend to set up a comprehensive academic journal in the name of the Institute of Advanced Studies ... Of course, even if it is not for the people of our Institute of Advanced Studies, you can submit papers, but we must hold our own hands when reviewing this."

Chen Yushan: "Do you need my help?"

"That's for sure. I don't understand these things. The editor-in-chief can take over for the time being, but I still have to ask you to specifically create a journal."

Hearing Lu Zhou's request, Chen Yushan turned her corners.

"A small matter, rest assured to me."

Speaking of this, she suddenly remembered a very important thing, so she asked.

"Well, by the way, what's your name for this journal?"

It took about five minutes to seriously think about this problem, Lu Zhou raised his head and said.

"Just ..."

"'Future' is fine."
