Multilevel quality-filters of scientific documents in physics after publication on the web — •Eberhard R. Hilf — Institute for Science Networking Oldenburg, GmbH

The Web allows for a new and more effective concept of publication of prime scientific documents and its refereeing. Instead of refereeing first and publish then as in the Gutenberg age with its risks of lost manuscripts (in case of rejection), long duration unto final publication and costly and tedious distribution ways, the e-age allows for the more effective way of publish first, referee then. Posting the document on the web is instant, easy and inexpensive. Professional authors will use either their institute’s web-server or a central archive. Refereeing the paper then can come with no time pressure by a multitude of steps of subsequent or parallel evaluation: annotations of other authors, approval of local institution, refereeing by journals or refereeing clubs.
A systematic approach to structure these levels of refereeing, ’vetting’, as the Anglosaxons say, or content certification is presented.
The international discussion and present status of recommendations are referred to as drawn e.g. from the ’ Workshop on OAi and Peer Review Journals in Europe (CERN 2001) ’.
