Creative Obfuscation

scientific writing is to communicate knowledge. A study of prominent journals, however, suggests that clear communication is not appreciated within the reading-writing-refereeing community. If clarity is a goal for a journal, the editor must take action.

Appraising internationality in Spanish communication journals

This author offers a case study focused on Spanish communication journals from a sample of 1182 articles published from 2007 to 2009. The article examines three variables in this sample: the number of non-Spanish scholars, the use of languages other than Spanish, and how often non-Spanish journals are referred to. The results show that (a) these journals find it difficult to attract foreign scholars, (b) open-language policies have had a limited effect, and (c) internationality is constrained to the Spanish geolinguistic region.

What balance between these two profiles is the best for authors of scientific papers and scientific journal editors?

Podemos identificar dos maneras extremas de vivir: con toda tranquilidad, como si la vida iba a durar para siempre, o con prisa, como si fuera más de mañana. ¿Qué equilibrio entre estos dos perfiles es el mejor para los autores de artículos científicos y los editores de revistas científicas?

Agent-based Computing from Multi-agent Systems to Agent-Based Models: A Visual Survey

In this paper, we use Scientometric analysis to analyze
all sub-domains of agent-based computing. Our data consists of 1,064 journal articles indexed in the ISI web of knowledge published during a twenty year period: 1990-2010. These were retrieved using a topic search with various keywords commonly used in sub-domains of agent-based computing. In our proposed approach, we have employed a combination of two applications for analysis, namely Network Workbench and CiteSpace - wherein Network Workbench allowed for the analysis of complex network aspects of the domain, detailed visualization-based analysis of the bibliographic data was performed using CiteSpace. Our results include the identification of the largest cluster based on keywords, the timeline of publication of index terms, the core journals and key subject categories. We also identify the core authors, top countries of origin of the manuscripts along with core research institutes. Finally, our results have interestingly revealed the strong presence of agent-based computing in a number of non-computing related scientific domains including Life Sciences, Ecological Sciences and Social Sciences.

It is both a survival mechanism and an instrument of manipulation; it can trigger an instinctive flight from danger or an immobilising terror in the face of the unknown; it defines the acts of a coward as well as the acts of a hero. This editorial explores the ways in which contributors to antiTHESIS 20: FEAR have approached the theme of the journal.
