Title: How to write good technical papers and get them accepted and then cited!

Speaker: Okyay Kaynak教授

IEEE/ASME Transactions on Mechatronics现任主编、IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics前任主编、IEEE会士、哈尔滨工业大学

In this presentation, the art of technical paper writing is elaborated upon. Firstly a three dimensional view of dissemination of research results is introduced and where a good scientific paper should position itself is discussed. Secondly, the basic rules that a good scientific paper needs to follow are presented in relation with the typical arguments behind a quick rejection. Thirdly, how to organize a technical paper is discussed with specific references to its main parts, i.e. the title, the abstract, the body, the mathematics used, the conclusions and the references.

The presentation concludes with a discussion on the review and the publication policy of the IEEE/ASME Transactions on Mechatronics.

Okyay Kaynak received the B.Sc. (first-class honors) and Ph.D. degrees in electronic and electrical engineering from the University of Birmingham, Birmingham, U.K., in 1969 and 1972, respectively.. From 1972 to 1979, he held various positions within the industry. In 1979, he joined the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Bogazici University, Istanbul, Turkey, where he is presently a full professor, holding the UNESCO Chair on Mechatronics and also aQianren (1000 Talents Program) Professor at the Harbin Institute of Technology, China. He has hold long-term (near to or more than a year) Visiting Professor/Scholar positions at various institutions in Japan, Germany, U.S. and Singapore. His current research interests are in the fields of intelligent control and mechatronics. He has authored three books and edited five and authored or coauthored almost 400 papers that have appeared in various journals, books and conference proceedings. Currently, he is theEditor-in-Chief of the IEEE/ASME Transactions on Mechatronics.

Dr. Kaynak is a fellow of IEEE. He has served on many committees of IEEE and was the president of IEEE Industrial Electronics Society during 2002-2003.
