Peer Review Process

Media Jurnal Informatika applies a double-blind peer review process: the identities of the authors and the reviewers are concealed from each other throughout the review.

1. Initial screening (1–2 weeks). The editor checks every submission for scope (artificial intelligence and intelligent systems), language (English), file format, adherence to the template, and similarity (Turnitin). Manuscripts that do not meet the Initial Screening Policy are rejected or returned to the authors without review.
2. Peer review (up to 4 weeks). Manuscripts that pass screening are sent to at least two independent reviewers with expertise in the topic. Reviewers assess originality, methodology, validity of results, clarity, and relevance of references.
3. Editorial decision. Based on the reviews, the editor decides to accept, request minor or major revision, or reject the manuscript. When the reviewers disagree, the editor may invite an additional reviewer.
4. Revision. Authors revise the manuscript and submit a response to each reviewer comment. Revised manuscripts may be sent back to the reviewers for re-evaluation.
5. Final decision and publication. Accepted manuscripts undergo copyediting and layout before publication. The editor-in-chief makes the final decision.

Reviewers must declare any conflict of interest and decline to review manuscripts in which they have one. Manuscripts submitted by editors or reviewers of the journal are handled by another editor and follow the same double-blind process.
