TechRxiv, a new preprint server for electrical engineering, computer science, and related technologies, has been launched by IEEE, the world’s largest technical professional organisation advancing technology for humanity. This new server is now available in beta and leverages the Figshare platform.
Figshare’s easy to use interface enables authors to efficiently upload unpublished research in a monitored environment, allowing members of the technical community to provide feedback on the draft.
The preprint articles posted will cover a wide array of fields in technology, including aerospace, bioengineering, communication technologies, circuits and systems, computing and processing, engineered materials and dielectrics, electromagnetics, geoscience, nuclear engineering, photonics and electrooptics, power and energy, robotics and control systems, signal processing, transportation, and more general engineering topics. Authors can register for an account to submit their preprint free-of-charge and will retain the copyright of preprints posted on TechRxiv and make the preprints available with Creative Commons licenses.
On TechRxiv, preprints are assigned a Digital Object Identifier (DOI) for citing. Metrics on preprints uploaded to TechRxiv will be displayed on the preprint landing page, including views, downloads, citations, and Altmetric Badges allowing researchers to get immediate feedback on how their research is being received by the community.
Preprints will also be indexed and discoverable in external systems, including CrossRef and Google Scholar, allowing researchers to easily identify and reuse preprints and data published in TechRxiv.
