ABOUT PAUL'S WORK
Paul Ginsparg is a theoretical physicist widely known for creating a computer-based system for physicists and other scientists to communicate their research results. Ginsparg's document server represents a conscious effort to reorganize scientific communications, establishing a marketplace of ideas of new submissions with minimal editorial oversight and abundant opportunity for commentary, supporting and opposing, from other investigators. Ginsparg circumvented traditional funding and approval mechanisms by developing the software in his spare time and running it on surplus equipment. This system (informally known as “the xxx archive,” currently hosted at Cornell University at http://arxiv.org) provides a new, interactive mechanism for scientific communications that complements, and in some respects supplants, more traditional paper publications. All documents are available without charge worldwide through the internet, making the latest results available even for those without access to a good research library. Ginsparg has deliberately transformed the way physics gets done—challenging conventional standards for review and communication of research and thereby changing the speed and mode of dissemination of scientific advances.
BIOGRAPHY
Paul Ginsparg received his A.B. (1977) from Harvard University and a Ph.D. (1981) from Cornell University. He was a Junior Fellow in the Harvard Society of Fellows (1981–1984) and a Sloan Foundation Fellow (1986–1990). Ginsparg served on the faculty of Harvard from 1984 to 1990 and on the research staff of the Los Alamos National Laboratory (1990–2001). In 2001, he accepted a faculty position at Cornell University in the Department of Physics and the Faculty of Computing and Information Science. In addition to launching the e-print archives, Ginsparg has published numerous papers in quantum field theory, string theory, conformal field theory, and quantum gravity. In 1998, he was awarded the Physics, Astronomy, and Math Award from the Special Libraries Association, and in 2000 he was elected as a Fellow of the American Physical Society.
个人简历
Paul Ginsparg在哈佛大学获得学士学位（1977年），在康奈尔大学获得博士学位（1981年）。他是哈佛大学研究员协会的初级研究员（1981-1984）和斯隆基金会研究员（1986-1990）。金斯帕格于1984年至1990年在哈佛大学任教，并在洛斯阿拉莫斯国家实验室担任研究人员（1990-2001年）。2001年，他接受了康奈尔大学物理系和计算与信息科学学院的教职。除了启动电子版档案外，金斯帕格还在量子场论、弦理论、共形场论和量子引力方面发表了许多论文。1998年，他被授予特殊图书馆协会颁发的物理学、天文学和数学奖，2000年，他被选为美国物理学会会员。
