摘要

科学研究活动正以惊人的速度增长,在同行评议的质量、掠夺性期刊的兴起以及由于出版压力的增加而涉及学术诚信和欺诈等更大的问题上,引入了新的挑战,并加剧了现有的挑战。区块链是一种分布式账本技术,非常适合解决科学出版的一些特定挑战。包括ARTiFACTS、Pluto、Orvium和sciencemmatters - eureka在内的公司,以及学术研究人员,正在探索基于区块链的解决方案,以促进研究数据的来源和工作流程,优化同行评审过程,引入更好的激励措施,甚至利用区块链创建新的研究期刊和平台。在对这些努力进行回顾的基础上,我们提出了一个基于联盟区块链模型的科学出版治理框架,以创建一种更有效的出版流程导航方法。该框架的核心是一个通过民主自治组织(DAO)采用共享治理和验证包容的模型。DAO是一个实体,其中组织规则通过智能合约实现和执行。DAO将由经过验证的个人和组织的参与者组成,他们是出版商、编辑、同行审稿人和公民科学家,以管理和监督该框架。该框架还专门映射到科学手稿的提交、处理、同行评审和最终编辑决策的出版工作流程。该框架的目标是增加科学出版的透明度,创建手稿研究生命周期的“谱系”,并使出版过程民主化,同时保持期刊科学出版的通用工作流程。

A Framework Proposal for Blockchain-Based Scientific Publishing Using Shared Governance
Scientific research activity is reaching a staggering growth rate, introducing new and compounding existing challenges regarding the quality of peer-review, rise of predatory journals, and larger issues involving academic integrity and fraud stemming from the increased pressure to publish. Blockchain, a distributed ledger technology, is well-suited to address some of the challenges specific to scientific publishing. Companies including ARTiFACTS, Pluto, Orvium, and ScienceMatters-EUREKA, along with academic researchers, are exploring blockchain-based solutions to facilitate research data provenance and workflows, optimize the peer-review process, introduce better incentives, and even create new research journals and platforms utilizing blockchain. Building upon a review of these efforts, we propose a governance framework for scientific publishing based on a consortium blockchain model to create a more efficient means of navigating the publishing process. At the center of this framework is a model that adopts shared governance and validated inclusion via a Democratic Autonomous Organization (DAO). A DAO is an entity wherein the organizational rules are implemented and executed via smart contracts. The DAO will be comprised of participants of validated individuals and organizations who are publishers, editors, peer-reviewers, and citizen scientists to manage and oversee the framework. The framework also maps specifically to the publication workflow of submitting, handling, peer-review, and final editorial decision-making for scientific manuscripts. The goal of this framework is to increase transparency of scientific publishing, create a “pedigree” of a manuscript’s research life cycle, and democratize the publication process while maintaining the accepted workflow common to scientific publishing by journals.
