Significance of paper writing
Why to write papers?
Helps to bring standards in research methodologies (State of the art measures)
Helps in jointly solving scientific problems
Is a measure to assess the research capabilities of a person
When to write papers
If you have solutions (close to solution) in the problem, you can write a paper
Depends on the volume of work and strength of theoretical basis you can send to
journal, conference or rapid communication letter
Conferences are time bound and hence we should be aware of paper submission
deadlines
Journals and rapid communication letters are open to paper submissions through out
the year

Dont’s in paper writing
Plagiarism
Considered as a serious offense in paper writing
Copying the materials of other papers without permission of
acknowledgement
Even copying the materials of your own published paper is

Reproducibility of research
Now people are talking about reproducible research
This means how well the figures, tables and other results
presented in your paper can be regenerated by a third
person other than the authors
Increases the credibility of your paper and hence
increased citations
