Abstract:
Pre-print repositories have seen a significant increase in use over the
past fifteen years across multiple research domains. Researchers are
beginning to develop applications capable of using these repositories to
assist the scientific community above and beyond the pure dissemination of
information. The contributions set forth by this paper emphasize a
deconstructed publication model in which the peer-review process is
mediated by an Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting
(OAI-PMH) peer-review service. This peer-review service uses a social-
network algorithm to determine potential reviewers for a submitted
manuscript and for weighting the influence of each participating reviewer's
evaluations. This paper also suggests a set of peer-review specific
metadata tags that can accompany a pre-print's existing metadata record.
The combinations of these contributions provide a unique repository-centric
peer-review model that fits within the widely deployed OAI-PMH framework.
