Sistemul clasic al comunicărilor ştiinţifice

We describe instruments of scientific communication, such as the personal communication, the laboratory notebook,  the dataset archive, the research journal and the conference proceedings, in their classical realisation.
Consolidation of commercial publishing houses and their acquisition of many journals from the learned societies
in the last part of the former century led to oligopolies in some fields, resulting in the periodicals crysis. In the
web age, online versions of most classical communication instruments were introduced, that mostly preserve the
same features of their paper variants. These electronic tools, however, constitute only the first stage of the web
revolution in research communication. Open access to publications and data, and especially the switch from
accessing literature from following specific journals to searching through a database, are quickly changing the
way research results are disseminated. The elements that aggregated over centuries, resulting in the academic
journal that publishes peer reviewed primary articles, are currently being reinvented and rearranged into distinct
instruments. Completely new tools such as collaborative platforms and games as a form a research output hint
to an entirely transformed scientific communications system in the very near future.
