Peer Review Process

NOVAKOMPUTA: Jurnal Ilmu Komputer dan Informatika implements a rigorous and transparent peer review process to ensure the quality, originality, and scientific contribution of all published articles.

All submitted manuscripts undergo a double-blind peer review process, in which both the authors and reviewers remain anonymous throughout the evaluation.

Initial Editorial Screening

Upon submission, each manuscript is first evaluated by the editorial team to determine its suitability with respect to the journal’s focus and scope, as well as its compliance with the author guidelines and basic academic standards. Manuscripts that do not meet these criteria may be returned to the authors for revision or rejected without further review.

Reviewer Assignment

Manuscripts that pass the initial screening are assigned to at least two independent reviewers who possess expertise in the relevant field. Reviewers are selected based on their academic background, research experience, and familiarity with the topic of the manuscript.

Review Process

Reviewers are requested to evaluate the manuscript based on several key aspects, including:

  • Originality and novelty of the research
  • Scientific and methodological soundness
  • Relevance to the field of computer science and informatics
  • Clarity of presentation and organization
  • Adequacy of references and supporting literature

Reviewers provide constructive comments and recommendations to assist authors in improving the quality of their work.

Editorial Decision

Based on the reviewers’ reports, the editor makes one of the following decisions:

  • Accept
  • Minor Revision
  • Major Revision
  • Reject

Authors are required to revise their manuscripts in accordance with the reviewers’ comments and resubmit within the specified timeframe.

Final Decision

The final decision regarding the acceptance of a manuscript is made by the editor, taking into consideration the reviewers’ evaluations and the quality of the revised manuscript.
