王 应 宽 2010-03-18 Beijing, China CIGR 期刊网络工作会议纪要( 2010-03-05 ) 最近因为国际农业工程学会的会刊 CIGR Ejournal 事宜,本人频繁的里通外国,经常与 CIGR 的主席团成员和国内外的专家们网上联络,经常召开网络会议。我也因此熟悉了电话会议( Teleconference )、网络视频会议 (FreeConference, Video Conference) 、 Skype 视频会议等新鲜玩意儿。最近还由本人召集了几次网络会议。 3 月 5 日晚召开的这次网络视频会议是通过 Skype 在我和 CIGR 即任主席、 CIGR Ejournal 主编、佛罗里达大学教授、首席信息官 Fedro Zazueta 博士之间进行的。由于我被推选为 CIGR Ejournal 主编,即将接替 Fedro 的工作,并将该刊移师中国北京承办,有许多具体工作需要交接,因而需要频繁的开会,进行充分的沟通。会后将开会的议程和会议纪要提交 CIGR 主席团审议。 会议完成各项议程,还确定了下次开会的时间为 3 月 26 日。但后来因为有很多事情需要讨论,我们又把下一次会议的时间提前到了 3 月 19 日。 3 月 5 日是个特殊的日子。首先,这是毛主席题词向雷锋同志学习的发表 47 周年的日子( 1963-03-05 )。其次, 3 月 5 日也是我在科学网开博两周年的日子( 2008-03-05 )。其实,想想我不畏艰难的去迎接挑战担任国际期刊 CIGR Ejournal 主编,主要目的也是希望通过我的专业修养和丰富经验把这本期刊发展好,更好的为中国和世界农业工程界的科研工作者服务。在科学网开博客,目的之一也是希望把自己的信息、知识和经验与同行交流、分享,以期为需要者提供一些有益的信息和资料服务。因为都在做服务,故贴出此篇会议纪要以志纪念。 Agenda Wang Yingkuan and Fedro Zazueta March 5, 2010 Online Meeting Meeting Started at 8:00 AM US Eastern Time Zone. Journal Governance Bylaws Bylaws were reviewed by Dr. Wang , and he also translated the bylaws into Chinese. Therefore, Dr. Wang knew the bylaws very well. Dr. Wang, as the new editor, will follow the principles of the tripartite agreement among CIGR, CSAM and CSAE, and the Journal Bylaws to run the CIGR journal. Proposals for changes to the journal will be processed ac c ording to the bylaws. Journal Board Need to ask the President to appoint the Journal Policy Board. Wang can officially become the new editor at the end of the first board meeting, meanwhile , Wang and Fedro will work together for a smooth transition. Fedro and Wang recommend Prof Bill Stout to become one of the member of the Journal Policy Board. Overview of the Journal One volume/year Conti n uous publication Wang recommends to have several issues per year ( Say, a Quarterly, four issues a year ). This will be helpful in securing ISI listing as submitting several issues is required for processing by Thompson Reuters . Issues and Top Priorities Computer skills of reviewers/section editors Current mode of operation Some section editors are conducting the review process outside OJS. Competencies of Section Editors need to be improved. Communications need to take place through OJS so a record is kept. Training A training session for Section Editors needs to be organized during 2010 CIGR World Congress held in Quebec , Canada in June. . A letter needs to be written to CSAE and CSAM to invite Wang for purposes of securing funding to travel to the CIGR meeting in Quebec. ISI listing Past communication A copy of communications with Thompson was sent to Wang. No reply to these was ever received from Thompson. Creation of Official SG file on the communications The lack of a trail of communications has hampered the efforts to suc c essfully list the Journal. A request was made some time ago to the Secretary General to keep an official file in communications with Thompson. Strategy for pursuing listing Wang is familiar with the submission process and will assist the Journal Policy Board in deciding on a strategy. Number of Section Editors The number o f Section Editors may not be adequate to move the number of publications through the system on a timely basis. Section editors must represent the society by a mix from different countries. Section editors must be submitted by the Technical Section to the Journal Board. Wang and Fedro will identify areas where section editors may be needed and names to propose to the Section Chairs. Can the editor (Wang) recruit section editors who are not from CIGR Technical Sections? Next Meeting Wang and Fedro will meet again on March 26 th at 8:00 AM Eastern Time Zone, online. An agenda will be developed in the interim and other may be invited as necessary. Meeting adjourned at 8:55 AM US Eastern Time Zone.

问:博主好,我有一篇文章,主编给一个意见是:“Add an experimental part and show some practical application. Offer strong motivation. Stress originality of your approach. ” 在提交修改稿后,他对此意见的答复是“not done”。但我感觉是按他的意思已经完成了,但他还是认为还没有做,有点茫然,请给个建议,在此先谢过了! 答:不客气! 本人对主编意见“Add an experimental part and show some practical application. Offer strong motivation. Stress originality of your approach. ” 的理解是:“添加一个实验部分并且显示一些实际中的应用(实例) 。给出强有力的(研究)动机。强调你研究(这一)问题的原创(性) ” 。(因为没有看到全文,这是我初步的理解。如有出入,请谅解。) 基於这个意见分析,我个人以为有以下几个考虑重点: 1.添加实验。应该是与论文研究的问题直接相关的实验,从方法,数据到分析,有的放矢; 2.实际的应用。表明研究的课题在实践中的应用价值,如果还没有实例,展望是否可行? 3.研究课题的动机。理论上为什么要研究这个问题,要搞清楚什么,达到怎样的目的?最好说得到位,明了,尤其要有说服力; 4.关键是个人的新意,原创,而不是照搬或借用前人的。 由此,本人的建议是再审查一遍修改的论文,看与原稿相比,是否按照要求更新了。如果是,可以审查程度上是否可以再进一步。主编原话中的some和strong是概念比较难掌握的量词,理解的程度因人而异。甲方感觉做到了,乙方可能觉得深度还不够。originality也是,作者觉得是原创,但主编和审稿人看过的文章比较多,也许会感到是旧话重提。这些都是有水分的地方,需要作者凭经验权衡和探究。实在还想不出原因,可以礼貌地和主编沟通,请求他/她的帮助。让其明确告之到底哪个方面改得还不够标准。 最后再多说一句,中西方的科技期刊不仅语言有别,而且运作过程中文化理念的差异更大。国内作者可能会有一些不解,委屈或牢骚。个人以为这是正常的,双方需要一个互相适应的过程。如果要继续发表文章,上策是抱着虚心和探索的态度,更不要急于求成。在两大差异悬殊的环境下,一蹴而就的事几乎是不可能的。交道打得多了,理解慢慢就加深了。关键要有理,有据,有节;就事论事,表现出较高的学术素养和职业修行。 个人愚见,仅供参考。衷心地祝您好运,论文早日发表! 又:郑融先生的评论对拙文中提及的 4 ,是很好的补充,特登于此,供游客君参考: 发表评论人: RongZheng 好文章!关于强调原创这一点,我觉得还要注意一点,就是不要避而不提他人相关的工作,把他人的贡献写清楚了,自己的创新和不同之处便突显出来了。 博主回复: 很好的补充,谢了! 的确是这么回事。实事求是地提及他人的工作,既尊重了前人的努力,又烘托出自己独创的部分。是聪明的“绿叶配红花” 之举, ^_^。
