Overview :
Orvium is an open source, decentralized framework for managing scholarly publications’ lifecycles and the associated data. Using cutting-edge blockchain and artificial intelligence technologies, as well as decentralized storage and big data, Orvium creates a public, traceable, and trustworthy record of the research publication process. Through continuous and transparent review by members of the scientific community, with reputational and economic rewards for peer reviewers, Orvium improves the effectiveness of research production and validation, empowering the research community to determine the validity and soundness of published work. Eliminating current practices within the publishing industry regarding plagiarism, idea ownership, and registration, Orvium allows authors to retain control of their work and its potential economic benefits, publishing with optimal publication and access costs. Orvium’s ultimate objective is to be the leading publication platform while returning the benefits of science to society.
Current Market VS Orvium :
Orvium is intended to eliminate the existing market inefficiencies and also to improve the quality and effectiveness of the scientific publication life cycle. The final objective is for Orvium to be the on the top as a leading publication platform for the research communities while returning the benefits of science to society and people. Using the blockchain technology and a totally decentralized storage it will allow a public to approach, entirely traceable as well as a trustworthy record of the publication process at a minimal cost. Furthermore, Orvium’s source code will be published under an open source license and driven by the community.
Solutions — How does it work ?
Due to a misaligned model that potentially compromises the current scientific publication industry, there is a surge in the migration to open source initiatives (e.g.arXiv & PLOS ONE). Therefore, the evolution towards a blockchain-based solution is a natural progression that would positively disrupt the scientific community. The model will work as follows:
