    • In academic publishing, a paper is an academic work that is usually published in an academic journal. It contains original research results or reviews existing results. Such a paper, also called an article, will only be considered valid if it undergoes a process of peer review by one or more referees (who are academics in the same field) who check that the content of the paper is suitable for publication in the journal. A paper may undergo a series of reviews, revisions and re-submissions before finally being accepted or rejected for publication. This process typically takes several months. Next there is often a delay of many months (or in some subjects, over a year) before an accepted manuscript appears. This is particularly true for the most popular journals where the number of accepted articles often outnumbers the space for printing. Due to this, many academics self-archive a 'pre-print' copy of their paper for free download from their personal or institutional website.

    • A Research Paper is a type of academic writing that needs more theoretical, significant and methodical level of question. Although a research paper is a kind of term paper, it is important to note that some term papers don’t require academic research. Accordingly, not all research papers can be considered as term papers.

      Gathering, interpreting, documenting details, developing and organizing ideas and conclusions and communicating them clearly — all these experiences will prove to be an essential and rewarding part of your education. But you must also have a positive outlook and ability to accomplish it — writing a research paper or a term paper is more than just having knowledge — these are the secrets to having an exceptional research paper.
