Trends in the development of scientific communication and questions are formulated, the answers to which should determine the image of the future of scientific communication in Russia. An overview of government decisions and projects in recent years related to the development of scientific information is offered. Among them are the President’s instructions, the draft law «On science and scientific policy», the creation of the National electronic library and the Single Russian electronic knowledge space and the National encyclopedia portal. The concepts of digital science development developed in the Ministry of education and science are analyzed in detail. It is claimed that their provisions do not correspond to the real state of Affairs in Russian scientific information systems. Proposing an action plan aimed at creating a Single digital space of scientific knowledge as the successor to GSNTI or the national system of scientific information as a separate fragment, Single Russian electronic knowledge spaces. The principles that can be used as the basis for a Single digital space of scientific knowledge are formulated.

Despite the development of technical means, the processes associated with the search for complete and accurate scientific information in a huge number of data sources are becoming more complicated. To reach a new level in the use of information processing technologies, first of all, a transition to a semantically meaningful representation is necessary for scientific knowledge extracted from information in a digital environment. In modern conditions, characterized by multidisciplinary research, the desired effect can be achieved by developing universal approaches to the storage and presentation of scientific knowledge. These approaches are reflected in the concept of the Common Digital Space of Scientific Knowledge. The paper presents an overview of the basic concepts in this area, which are used both to represent the elements of space and to provide access to them not only for humans, but also for software agents. Semantic libraries are considered as tools for constructing the knowledge space.

The task of forming a digital space of scientific knowledge (DSSK) is analyzed in the paper. The difference of this concept from the general concept of the information space is considered. DSSK is presented as a set containing objects verified by the world scientific community. The form of a structured representation of the digital knowledge space is a semantic network, the basic organization principle of which is based on the classification system of objects and the subsequent construction of their hierarchy, in particular, according to the principle of inheritance. The classification of the objects that make up the content of the DSSK is introduced. A model of the central data collection system is proposed as a collection of disjoint sets containing digital images of real objects and their characteristics, which ensure the selection and visualization of objects in accordance with multi-aspect user requests. The concept of a user collection is defined, and a hierarchical classification of types of user collections is proposed. The use of the concepts of set theory in the construction of DSSK allows you to break down information into levels of detail and formalize the algorithms for processing user queries, which is illustrated by specific examples.

The rapid development of information technologies and the avalanche growing of scientific information volumes necessitated the transition to a semantically significant representation of scientific knowledge extracted from information in the digital environment, and their organization in the form of a Common digital space of scientific knowledge (CDSSK). Each field of science has its own specifics, and it's scientific knowledge can form its own subspace. In modern conditions, it is necessary to develop universal approaches to the storage and presentation of scientific knowledge, thereby ensuring the integration of individual subspaces into a single whole. The first step towards the implementation of these approaches should be the development of the CDSSK ontology as a multi-level system of concepts describing the resources and objects of subject areas, terms and relationships between them, characterized by an open hierarchical and dynamic structuring, oriented both to store existing knowledge and to extract new ones.

The article attempts a comprehensive analysis of the concept and phenomenon of the common digital space of scientific knowledge (CDSSK) as a narrower wording of the concept of the common Russian electronic space of knowledge, which is proposed in a number of government documents. Definitions of basic concepts are proposed in relation to this phenomenon. Goals, objectives, composition, and structure are considered to be the boundaries and the principles of creating CDSSK. A brief overview of the existing scientific information resources and services that have the features of the elements of space of scientific knowledge follows. It is concluded that the existing information resources can be sources of CDSSK but not its components. The paper proposes a structure for CDSSK, including static and dynamic components (base and add-in), various levels of knowledge representation, and core and periphery. This should include formalized knowledge over which a set of operations and the periphery – the sources of this knowledge (including documents) – are selected on the basis of quality. The logical structure of CDSSK must submit its ontology, formed as it ought to be on the basis of information languages and metadata of existing scientific information resources. A number of steps are proposed to organize the work of creating CDSSK, as well as its content and support.

Unsolved methodological problems of creating a single digital knowledge space are considered. The methodology of information space intellectualization is presented as one of the priority trends of modern information development. The characteristics of the information infrastructure of the digital economy are defined: intellectual type of scientific knowledge storage, visibility. Actual theoretical problems that require operational solutions in the context of designing a single digital space of scientific knowledge are formulated. Solutions to the problems of selecting objects of information modeling and reflection, dialectics of individual and system objects in the structure of a single digital space of scientific knowledge, industry-specific and differentiated approaches to the design of a single digital space of scientific knowledge are proposed. Organizational models of the unified digital space of scientific knowledge are considered. The idea of a single digital space of scientific knowledge is considered through the prism of the experience of organizing inter-organizational projects in the Russian information market.

The volume of scientific information appearing in the world today creates serious problems with its processing and use. In this regard, it becomes necessary to filter scientific information and extract from it knowledge that is novel and unique. The aggregate of such information in digital form, together with the tools to ensure its updating, preservation and provision to users, is defined as a common digital space of scientific knowledge. It consists of a set of thematic subspaces related to various areas of science, built on the same principles. Despite the fact that there are some examples of formalization of knowledge in different subject areas, there is no generalized approach to defining the digital space of scientific knowledge. This paper discusses the problems and tasks of the formation of a such space and the development of tools that provide the ability to study information in it.

Scientific communication has undergone deep transformations, since the emergence of Internet. Aiming to provide further thought on the evolution of scientific communication, this paper features a historical overview of the scientific communication advances over the last twenty years through a three-phase model for the evolution of the electronic journal and the preprints services, and presents Brazilian contemporary panorama for scientific communication. The three-phase model presented in this work is an adaptation of that one proposed by Tenopir et al. (2003) to describe the patterns of journal use by scientists since 1990. The early evolutionary phase followed the emergence of the first digital journals and the creation of repositories in the Web for publishing preliminary versions of scientific literature on the author’s initiative; by that time, most academics reproved electronic publishing initiatives. From 1996 and forward, in the consolidation phase, electronic journals were commonly identical to their print counterparts; the acceptance of the electronic format began to increase, and preprint services got underway in several disciplines. The advanced evolutionary phase started with the world discussion on open access to scientific information. The comparison of the current electronic journal with that viewed by enthusiasts in the first years of the 1990s shows that some aspects still remain to be improved in electronic formal and informal communication, towards effective dissemination of scientific information.
