Transforming the Way we publish Research by Daniel Mietchen @EvoMRI
Dynamics: Research is a process. The scientific journal of the future provides a platform for continuous and rapid publishing of workflows and other information pertaining to a research project, and for updating any such content by its original authors or collaboratively by relevant communities.
Scope: Data come in many different formats. The scientific journal of the future interoperates with databases and ontologies by way of open standards and concentrates itself on the contextualization of knowledge newly acquired through research, without limiting its scope in terms of topic or methodology.
Access: Free access to scientific knowledge, and permissions to re-use and re-purpose it, are an invaluable source for research, innovation and education. The scientific journal of the future provides legally and technically barrier-free access to its contents, along with clearly stated options for re-use and re-purposing.
Replicability: The open access to all relevant core elements of a publication facilitates the verification and subsequent re-use of published content. The scientific journal of the future requires the publication of detailed methodologies, including all data and code, that form the basis of any research project.
Review: The critical, transparent and impartial examination of information submitted by the professional community enhances the quality of publications. The scientific journal of the future supports post-publication peer review, and qualified reviews of submitted content shall always be made public.
Presentation: Digitization opens up new opportunities to provide content, such as through semantic and multimedia enrichment. The scientific journal of the future adheres to open Web standards and creates a framework in which the technological possibilities of the digital media can be exploited by authors, readers and machines alike, and content remains continuously linkable.
Transparency: Disclosure of conflicts of interest creates transparency. The scientific journal of the future promotes transparency by requiring its editorial board, the editors and the authors to disclose both existing and potential conflicts of interest with respect to a publication and to make explicit their contributions to any publication.
Sustainability: Resources are limited. Ecological considerations are reflected in the design and production of the scientific journal of the future.
Flexibility: Innovation is stiffled by inflexible rules. Exceptions to the above rules are possible if justified in public.
Summary
(1) Open Access is not just an end in itself but a first step towards open science
(2) Reuse is based on open licenses
(3) The journal of the future reflects that research is a process and performed by a community
(4) It is important to integrate on- and offline activities
(5) All of this relies upon an open infrastructure for the web and upon open-source standard-compliant cross-platform tools to navigate it

- the rift between publishers and librarians is out of proportion, need to repair their relationship
- publisher have a big image problem against popular OA arguments
- publishers did very bad PR and communication

Closing Panel at the #APE2012 with Sven Fund, Sabine Graumann (TNS Infratest) Ahmed Hindawi (HIndawi Publishing, Cairo), Armin Talke (IFLA/Staatsbibliothek Berlin) and Heinz Weinheimer (Springer, Heidelberg)
Sabine Graumann
Role of publishers in Open Access
Publishers asure Qualität - we need Quality
Would restrict access
Publisher create Value add
Library role was not discussed
Armin Talke
publishers and librarian should work together in the cloud, fighting
Heinz Weinheimer
semantic enrichment on content
data structur gets more important
don't spend to much on new formats
Ahmed Hindawi
Liked Derk Haank "Be fair to me ..."
Open Access discussion is now much more rational
