Only 8% members of the Scientific Research Society agreed that "peer review
works well as it is". (Chubin and Hackett, 1990; p.192).

"A recent U.S. Supreme Court decision and an analysis of the peer review
system substantiate complaints about this fundamental aspect of scientific
research." (Horrobin, 2001)

Horrobin concludes that peer review "is a non-validated charade whose
processes generate results little better than does chance." (Horrobin, 2001).
This has been statistically proven and reported by an increasing number of
journal editors.

But, "Peer Review is one of the sacred pillars of the scientific edifice"
(Goodstein, 2000), it is a necessary condition in quality assurance for
Scientific/Engineering publications, and "Peer Review is central to the
organization of modern science
…why not apply scientific [and engineering] methods to the peer review
process" (Horrobin, 2001).

This is the purpose of the International Symposium on Peer Reviewing: ISPR
(http://www.ICTconfer.org/ispr) being organized in the context of The 3rd
International Conference on Knowledge Generation, Communication and
Management: KGCM 2009 (http://www.ICTconfer.org/kgcm), which will be held on July
10-13, 2009, in Orlando, Florida, USA.

-------------------------------------------------------
Deadlines for ISPR 2009 and KGCM 2009

March 18th, 2009, for papers/abstracts submissions and Invited Sessions
Proposals
April 13th, 2009: Authors Notification
May 27th, 2009: Camera ready, final version
-------------------------------------------------------

Pre-Conference and Post-conference VIRTUAL sessions (via electronic forums)
will be held for each session included in the conference program, so
sessions' papers can be read before the conference, and authors presenting at the
same session can interact during one week before the conferences, and after
it is over. Authors can also participate in peer-to-peer reviewing in
virtual sessions.

All Submitted papers will be reviewed using a double-blind (at least three
reviewers), non-blind, and participative peer review. Accepted papers of
registered authors will be published in the printed copy and the CD versions
of the Proceedings. The proceedings will also be published via web for Full
Open Access.

All attendees of the last KGCM 2008 conference, and its collocated ones,
were asked to be surveyed online. Those who filled the survey form (602
attendees) rated the conferences with an average of 8.42 on a scale of 10. More
specifically, 58.7% rated them in the range of 8-10, while just 7 attendees
(1.16%) rated them below 5. More details regarding this and other questions
can be found at: http://www.iiis.org/iiis/StatisticsandOpinions/WMSCI2008/

Authors of accepted papers who registered in the conference will have
access to the reviews made to their submission so they can accordingly improve
the final version of their papers. Non-registered authors will not have
access to the reviews of their respective submissions.

All accepted papers where at least one author is registered in the
conference will be included in the hard copy and the CD versions of the conference
proceedings.

For Invited Sessions Proposals, please go to the conference web site. The
best paper of each invited session will also be published in JSCI at no
additional cost for the author Invited session organizers will be co-editors of
the proceedings volume where their session's papers are to be included, and
they will be guest editors of the Journal issue where the best paper
presented at their invited session has been included.

Awards will be granted to the best paper of those presented at each
session. The best 10%-20% of the papers presented at the conference will be
selected from these session's best papers, and will also be published in Volume 7
of JSCI Journal (http://www.j-sci.com/Journal/SCI/), with no additional
cost for their authors. Libraries of journal author's organizations will
receive complimentary subscriptions to at least one volume (6 issues).
