Popis: A simulation model based on parallel systems is established, aiming to explore the relation between the number of submissions and the overall standard of academic journals within a similar discipline under peer review. The model can effectively simulate the submission, review, and acceptance behaviors of academic journals in a distributed manner. According to the simulation experiments, it could possibly happen that the overall standard of academic journals deteriorates due to excessive submissions.
