Where credit is NOT due… March 23, 2013

trackback
My husband wrote a paper based on some of his dissertation work, and it now finds its home at IEEE Xplore. I was listed as a co-author along with our advisor. However, when it was entered into the database, apparently someone glitched up the authors: it had me listed twice (once with full name and once with first initial and last name) and he wasn’t listed at all.
He found this a few days ago, and now we’re waiting for them to correct the listing.
It certainly doesn’t look good, and I hope it gets fixed before someone thinks I’m trying to take credit for his work!
I also blog at Engineer Blogs, home away from home to some of the best engineering blogs.
Yikes! When stuff like that happens I always stress about it until it is fixed, so I wish you peace of mind!
