Peer Review Process

Peer Review Process

JUIKTI applies a rigorous and transparent peer-review process to maintain the academic quality, originality, methodological soundness, and relevance of published articles.

Double-Blind Peer Review

Jurnal Ilmu Komputer dan Teknik Informatika (JUIKTI) uses a double-blind peer-review system. The identities of authors are concealed from reviewers, and the identities of reviewers are concealed from authors throughout the review process.

Review Workflow
01
Manuscript Submission

Authors submit their manuscripts through the JUIKTI online submission system. The submitted manuscript should comply with the journal's author guidelines, ethical requirements, and manuscript preparation standards.

02
Initial Editorial Screening

The editorial team evaluates the manuscript for relevance to the journal's focus and scope, originality, basic scientific quality, completeness, formatting, ethical considerations, and compliance with the author guidelines.

03
Similarity and Research Integrity Check

Manuscripts may be screened using an appropriate similarity-detection system and evaluated for potential plagiarism, duplicate publication, unethical research practices, or other research-integrity concerns.

04
Reviewer Selection

Manuscripts that pass the initial screening are assigned to qualified and independent reviewers with relevant expertise. JUIKTI normally seeks evaluation from at least two independent reviewers.

05
Double-Blind Review

Reviewers independently evaluate the manuscript based on academic quality, originality, relevance, methodology, analysis, results, discussion, references, clarity, and overall contribution to the field.
