研究論文是科學發展的重要基石。論文在發表前通常會經由專業同仁來協助審稿 以確認論文品質。有鑑於現有的論文審稿制度需要將論文完整的提供給第三方來進行 審核，審核過程中尚存在一些制度上的漏洞有可能造成學術剽竊;除此之外，由於審 稿者可能因為無酬而不積極的進行審稿，造成整體審稿流程延宕;更甚者敷衍或隨意 回覆審稿結果，降低論文審稿結果的品質保證。區塊鏈及智慧合約技術擁有不可篡改 性及透明交易流程的特性，採用區塊鏈於學術投稿制度能夠將所有可以看過論文的人 都記錄至區塊鏈上，並且所有的人都可以看到有誰看過這篇論文，因此能夠有效的防 止論文作者的學術成果被剽竊，並且使審核流程更加的透明。因此，本研究旨在利用 區塊鏈及智慧合約打造一個線上論文協同審稿系統，使投稿至此系統之論文受到平台 保障並降低遭到學術剽竊之風險。此外，平台提供第三方專業同仁針對審稿建議的協 同審稿機制，降低出現劣質審稿建議的出現機率，以確保最終論文之品質。;Publishing research papers is the foundation for advancing and sharing scientific knowledge. Before it is published, a research paper requires peer review to ensuring its quality. To perform peer review, it is necessary to provide the content of the paper to the anonymous reviewers for review, which highly exposes the paper to the risk of plagiarism due to the unknown identity of reviewers. Besides, when conducting the review service, reviewers might take a passive attitude due to insufficient incentive, resulting in a delay or poor quality of the review report. To address these issues, this research applies the concepts of block-chain and smart contract to design and implement an online collaborative peer view system. Specifically, with the features of persistency of blockchain, every information related to reviewing is stored and unchangeable; in addition, high transparency of transactions in smart contracts provide the ability to trace back every user who had read the paper, this research develops an online system with mentioned features to facilitate the collaborative review of the research paper. The system is designed to protect peer review from plagiarism with the smart contract and make the review process clearer. Furthermore, the system innovatively allows peers to review on the review of a paper, to help ensure the quality of both the paper and its collaborative review.
