Abstract

Various factors have been attributed for delayed recognition of Sleeping Papers, for example introducing new technologies which didn’t yet exist, or proposing ideas that were too much ahead of time to be interesting or usable in practice or for further research. In this letter, we analyse another possible reason, namely missing the target audience.
