    Abstract

    This report presents an overview of the State of the Art in topics related to the on-going research in the Liquid Publications Project. The Liquid Publications Project (LiquidPub) aims to bring fundamental changes to the processes by which scientific knowledge is created, disseminated, evaluated and maintained. In order to accomplish this, many processes and areas will have to be modified. We group the areas involved in this change into four areas: creation and evolution of scientific knowledge, evaluation processes (primarily, peer-review processes and their evaluation), computational trust and reputation mechanisms, and business and process models. Due to the size and complexity of each of these four areas, we will only discuss topics that are directly related to our proposed research.
