Whois & Analysis for sciencepublishinggroup.com

Academic publishing is the subfield of publishing which distributes academic research and scholarship.

Most academic work is published in academic journal article, book or thesis form.

The part of academic written output that is not formally published but merely printed up or posted on the Internet is often called "grey literature".

Most scientific and scholarly journals, and many academic and scholarly books, though not all, are based on some form of peer review or editorial refereeing to qualify texts for publication.

Peer review quality and selectivity standards vary greatly from journal to journal, publisher to publisher, and field to field.

For a broader class of literature, see Academic literature.

Scientific literature comprises scholarly publications that report original empirical and theoretical work in the natural and social sciences, and within an academic field, often abbreviated as the literature.

Academic publishing is the process of contributing the results of one's research into the literature, which often requires a peer-review process.

Original scientific research published for the first time in scientific journals is called the primary literature.

Patents and technical reports, for minor research results and engineering and design work (including computer software), can also be considered primary literature.

Secondary sources include review articles (which summarize the findings of published studies to highlight advances and new lines of research) and books (for large projects or broad arguments, including compilations of articles).

Tertiary sources might include encyclopedias and similar works intended for broad public consumption.

An academic conference or symposium is a for researchers (not necessarily academics) to present and discuss their work.

Together with academic or scientific journals, conferences provide an important channel for exchange of information between researchers.

An academic discipline or academic field is a branch of knowledge.

It incorporates expertise, people, projects, communities, challenges, studies, inquiry, and research areas that are strongly associated with a given scholastic subject area or college department.

For example, the branches of science are commonly referred to as the scientific disciplines, e.g. physics, mathematics, and computer science.

Publishing is the dissemination of literature, music, or information—the activity of making information available to the general public.

In some cases, authors may be their own publishers, meaning originators and developers of content also provide media to deliver and display the content for the same.

Also, the word publisher can refer to the individual who leads a publishing company or an imprint or to a person who owns/heads a magazine.
