1.2 Change of Scholarly Communications: Paradigm shift

Move to The 4th Paradigm

The research method is revolving around data-driven science

The 1st Paradigm – Experimental Science

Began thousands of years. Explanation for Natural Phenemena

The 2nd Paradigm – Theoretical Science

Began hundreds of years, Model and Generalization

The 3rd Paradigm – Computational ScienceBegan 10 years ago, Virtualization for Complex Phenomenon

The 4th Paradigm-Data-driven Science

The entire scientific community found new era by crossing multi-disciplines, C. Lynch

It jumps over the boundary between academic disciplines and creates community-driven scientific knowledge curation, P. Ginsparg

It takes advantage of the parts that can be contributed in scholarly communication, H.V de Sompel & C. Lagoze

It needs to be adjusted beyond the barriers between the communities and policy makers establish the data policy. Anne & B. Fitzgerald

It exists between the various academic disciplines but emphasizes interconnectivity in the network world. T. Hannay

2. Scholarly publishing & Communications in Korea

In Korean academic publication, the journals have published by about 2,000

societies in liberal arts and S&T

more than 2,500 kinds of journals have been published by the societies

the editorial board organized by each society is responsible for submission

and peer-review of manuscripts, and then print offices are in charge of

printing the manuscripts

Korea does not have systematic marketing and market research for journal

publishing

unprofessional publication and distribution environment at the birth of a

journal

government

6. Expected benefits from collaborations

The usage of academic information in each country will be active, and the

influence will increase.

Academic activities of each country will advance.

It is possible for each country to collaborate with global service providers.
