論文寫作前 注意事項

Is this an important problem, or, is the data collected and analyzed of interest to the wider community?

What has been done in the past?

Does this research significantly advance the state of the field?

投稿期刊 還是 會議 ?會議主要目的是通過演講 現場交流資訊和交換想法會議常常反映最新最前沿的研究，很多研究尚未到達正式期刊發表的程度，還處於研究進展階段。會議主要是快速傳播科研資訊，以從觀眾中獲取寶貴的意見和回饋會議常常會盡可能能覆蓋較多的參與者，所以很多會議論文接受率較高

期刊論文是作者所從事研究工作和最終結果的完整呈現；其結論清晰明確並有嚴格的資料支援。期刊發表體現更嚴格的評審以及更高品質的成果大部分期刊論文至少有 3 名 以上評審人審稿，並有副主編定稿期刊論文接受率通常遠低於會議論文

IEEE 期刊投稿流程

IEEE 學術期刊

160Journals, Transactions,

Magazines

5

Journals- 學術期刊Journals, Transactions, and Letters are the primary means for publishing technical papers concerning original work in IEEE fields of interest.

– The primary purpose of Journals, Transactions, and Letters is to disclose and provide a permanent archival record of original technical work that advances the state of the art or provides novel insights.

– Letters are for the publication of brief papers, usually three to four pages in length.

6

Magazines- 技術雜誌

Magazines are characterized by regular and continuing issues with significant technical content in addition to general news and regular columns– IEEE Communications Magazine

– IEEE Microwave Magazine

– IEEE Signal Processing Magazine

– IEEE Instrumentation & Measurement Magazine

– ......

如何選擇期刊投稿第一步 - 瞭解期刊

一旦確定了 4-5 本目標期刊，下一步是研究 “ Aims and Scope” 以瞭解到底該刊傾向於 何種類型的文章– 主編– 編委成員

閱讀部分期刊收錄的文章，判斷該期刊的 讀者群是否吻合

IEEEJournal of theElectron DevicesSociety

IEEE Transactions on Emerging Topics in Computing

IEEE 於 2013 年發佈一種 Open Access 型出版物 Mega Journal 。該期刊瞄準 IEEE 所有研究領域的廣泛受眾，包括普通讀者、專家和從業人員。其既包含實用型文章，也包含研究型文章

IEEE Access 採用的是技術相關度和準確度、而非科學理論重要性這一接納標準，將為新作者提供一個出版中心，並將任職於公司而非大學的眾多電氣、電子和電腦工程師讀者緊密地聯繫在一起

馬里蘭大學高級生命週期工程研究中心創始人兼主任 Michael Pecht 博士為該期刊的現任主編

23

同行評審Does it address a new and important problem?

Is the material original?

Are the methods and rationale valid?

Do the conclusions make sense?

Is it clearly written?

Do the illustrations, tables, and charts support the text?

Are the references current and relevant to the subject?

Is the content appropriate, in scope and level, for the journal?

Does not have sufficient technical content

IEEE 投稿注意事項

32

強調原創性

IEEE's policy on duplicate publication states

– "authors should only submit original work that has neither appeared elsewhere for publication, nor which is under review for another refereed publication. If authors have used their own previously published work(s) as a basis for a new submission, they are required to cite the previous work(s) and very briefly indicate how the new submission offers substantively novel contributions beyond those of the previously published work(s)."

http://ewh.ieee.org/soc/nps/TNS.htm 33

學術抄襲行為

Copying someone else’s entire article, or a major portion of the article (more than 50%) verbatim, without credit to the original author(s) or copying your own previously published work (see redundant Publication, below). Copying a large proportion (20-50%) of someone else’s work, or your own previous work, without credit.Copying without credit individual elements such as paragraphs, sentences, or illustrations, resulting in a significant portion (up to 20%) of an article.Uncredited paraphrasing of pages or paragraphs from another source.Credited verbatim copying of a major portion of an article without clear delineation, such as quotes or indents

34

不要一稿多投

Never submit work for review to more than one publication at the same time. Doing so risks being accepted by both publications and, consequently, multiple publications

It is common in technical publishing for material to be presented at various stages of evolution. – Early ideas may be published in a workshop; more

developed work in conference proceedings; and the fully developed study may be published in a journal.

– IEEE guidelines require that authors fully cite their prior work. Authors must be able to demonstrate significant advances from prior publications.

重新提交以前被拒收的稿件

有時候作者被建議重新提交被拒收稿件的更新版本。

提交時請不要附給審稿人的單獨說明信件，而是把你的觀點在更新版本中陳述清楚，確保大多數人能夠理解核心內容

在提交時，作者會選擇是該文是全新稿件或是以前的拒收稿件更新版本。如果是後者，你需要提供支援檔，證明新版本如何解決以前的評審意見和建議

e.g. The IEEE Sensors Journal

不當行為處理Immediate rejection of the manuscript in question

Immediate withdrawal of all other submitted manuscripts by any of the authors, submitted to any of the Society’s publications (journals, conferences, workshops), except for manuscripts that also involve innocent co-authors

Prohibition against each of the authors for any new submissions, either individually, in combination with the authors of the plagiarizing manuscript, or in combination with new co-authors, to all of the Society’s publications (journals, conferences, workshops). The prohibition shall continue for one year from notice of suspension.
