In the publication of sci papers, online is a link published online, which is actually the same as the retrieval meaning of domestic academic papers, that is, you can retrieve your own articles through the Internet, that is, the articles are included, and online and publication are two different links, so it is still easy to distinguish.

Online is generally before publication, which is different from the publication of domestic papers. Domestic papers are generally published first and then retrieved. After the sci paper goes online, the author will get the doi number of the article, which is the identity information of scientific papers and documents, and the full name is the digital object identifier.

It is unique, and once it is produced permanently, it is an important symbol of searching papers, through which you can link to the full text of the papers conveniently and reliably.

In China, the assessment of sci papers is based on the doi number retrieval, that is, as long as the sci papers can be retrieved through the doi number, even if they are successfully published, even if the articles are not finally published, it does not matter.

However, some assessments require authors to provide the volume number, issue number and page number of published publications. If this is the standard, the author needs to wait patiently for the article to be published.

The time from online to online depends on the specific publication. Many sci journals have higher publishing efficiency, but it also depends on the quality level of articles. The above briefly introduces the difference between sci journals and online. For more questions, please consult the online editor of the title post.
