Description

In this presentation we address a central problem within the quality control academic dissemination: the peer-review process. We show how the blockchain technology could provide an efficient and feasible solution and open up possibile directions for a change in paradigm in scientific communication. We propose an incentive mechanism, called Ants-Review, that could solve the problems of lack of acknowledgment and trust during peer-review. We expose the architecture of our project and our Proof of Concept (PoC) for which we adopte cutting-edge tools from the open source blockchain community.
