Information technologies,
particularly the personal computer and the World Wide
Web, are changing the ways that scientists communicate.
The traditional print-based system that relies on the
refereed scientific journal as the key delivery mechanism
for research findings is undergoing a transformation
to a system much more reliant on electronic communication
and storage media. This article offers a new paradigm
for communication in science, and suggests how digital
media might bring new roles and functionalities to participants.
The argument is made that behavioral and organizational
determinants are as important factors as technological
capabilities in shaping the future. |
