How To Respond to Reviewers Comments (repost)

I am really excited in sharing with you this Webinar by Elsevier Publishing Campus on how a researcher should deal with the reviewer's comments. I really encourage young researchers to sign up to Elsevier Publishing Campus for free lectures and very interactive training. Whether it be your interested in writing a journal article, wondering how the peer review process is conducted or even understanding publishing ethics, whatever it may be, EPC has many resources to help researchers achieve some of their goals. 

Often enough, authors are asked to revise their paper with minor or major revisions and in many other likely cases the paper is rejected. Regardless of the type of response, the authors receive a series of comments that have been forwarded from the reviewers to the editor .

I've just finished listening to this webinar and I found it to be very well-structured, informative and includes a compilation of key points to remember the next time we deal with response letters. In fact, I have just received a decision letter this morning and unfortunately for the second time in a row with the same journal, my paper has been rejected. 

The best advice is to stay positive and remember it is not a sprint, it is a marathon !

    In this manner my pal Wesley Virgin's report launches with this SHOCKING AND CONTROVERSIAL VIDEO.

    As a matter of fact, Wesley was in the army-and soon after leaving-he unveiled hidden, "mind control" secrets that the government and others used to get anything they want.

    As it turns out, these are the EXACT same SECRETS lots of famous people (especially those who "became famous out of nothing") and top business people used to become wealthy and successful.

    You probably know how you use only 10% of your brain.

    Really, that's because most of your BRAINPOWER is UNTAPPED.

    Maybe that thought has even occurred IN YOUR very own brain... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's brain around 7 years ago, while riding a non-registered, garbage bucket of a car with a suspended driver's license and $3 in his pocket.

    "I'm absolutely frustrated with living paycheck to paycheck! When will I become successful?"

    You've been a part of those those types of questions, ain't it right?

    Your success story is waiting to happen. You just need to take a leap of faith in YOURSELF.

    WATCH WESLEY SPEAK NOW

WASET Conference is a FAKE

Image
This post is intended for all researchers that want or thinking of attending the Montreal 2014 Conference organized by WASET (that is theoretically supposed to occur at the Ritz-Carlton Montreal   hotel) AND to all who wish to attend future conferences held by WASET, please read below: I submitted my abstract February 7 2014 and selected the option to have an oral presentation rather than a poster. March 6 I receive an email informing me that my paper was accepted (although they did not properly copy and paste the title of my paper) anyway, you can check the official acceptance paper. Since the topic of my paper is on wind turbine blade optimization, I believed that by the name of the chosen conference  ICSREE 2014: International Conference on Sustainable and Renewable Energy Engineering , researchers in this domain from around the world will be gathered with interesting papers and presentations.... Well, judge yourself, take a look at the ...

The Impact of Lebanon's Political Crisis on Academic Publication and Higher Education

Image
It doesn't take a genius to tell you that violence and triggered wars are occurring in the Middle East. As much of a pain it is to witness such violence and hate, there should be no place for pessimism. Therefore, this post is not aimed at discussing the reasons, but rather the impact of the political conflicts of the last decade on research publication in Lebanon, a small study that I hope will touch others, whom share the same responsibilities.  At first, if you are not familiar with  SCImago Journal & Country Rank , I suggest you get to know the SJR metric. It basis it algorithm on the information contained in the  Scopus  database (Elsevier) since 1996. It allows you to visualize, compare, and analyze the ranks of journals, countries and even regions. I based my analysis and study on the results generated by  SCImago   on the region of the Middle East; particularly on Lebanon.   Lebanon ranks 9th in the Middle East in ...

Research Paper: A Constraint-Handling Technique for Genetic Algorithms using a Violation Factor

Image
I am very excited to share my first publication in computational intelligence. I began working on the constraint-handling technique in the month of February 2015, as I was trying to find a way to introduce the wind turbine design constraints into my optimization algorithm. Inspired the motif of preserving the core notions of evolution in genetic algorithm by refusing to add a penalty function to the fitness function, I proposed my constraint-handling technique named VCH ( Violation Constraint-Handling ).
