Acta INFOLOGICA (ACIN) is started its publication life in June 2017 as a peer-reviewed scientific journal under the management of the Informatics Department of the Istanbul University.

Starting from March 2022, except for the articles in process, the journal has started to consider manuscripts in English for evaluation and publication language has become English. Before March 2022 the publication languages of the journal were English and Turkish.

ACIN aims to contribute to the scientific community interested in the field of informatics and aims to provide a platform for researchers exploring issues based on the concepts of data-information-knowledge, information and communication technologies and applications. The journal welcomes multidisciplinary studies regarding the field as well.

ACIN is published twice a year in June and December. In order to ensure that the scientific content is published correctly and appropriately, all studies are evaluated by at least two referees. In the evaluation process, blind review method is applied. At the end of the evaluation process, the articles which are deemed appropriate for publishing are taken into publication order and informed to the paper owner. The studies submitted for evaluation to be published in ACIN are screened for similarity.  The journal targets national and international audience. All work submitted for evaluation must be prepared in accordance with the ethical principles of scientific publishing and at the same time another journal, congress, conference etc. place should not be in the process of evaluation.

The journal is committed to upholding the highest standards of publication ethics and pays regard to Principles of Transparency and Best Practice in Scholarly Publishing published by the <a href="https://publicationethics.org/" target="_blank">Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE)</a>, <a href="https://doaj.org/apply/transparency/#principles-of-transparency-and-best-practice-in-scholarly-publishing" target="_blank">the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ)</a>, <a href="https://oaspa.org/" target="_blank">the Open Access Scholarly Publishers Association (OASPA)</a>, and <a href="https://www.wame.org/" target="_blank">the World Association of Medical Editors (WAME)</a> on <a href="https://publicationethics.org/resources/guidelines-new/principles-transparency-and-best-practice-scholarly-publishing" target="_blank">https://publicationethics.org/resources/guidelines-new/principles-transparency-and-best-practice-scholarly-publishing</a> The subjects covered in the manuscripts submitted to the Journal for publication must be in accordance with the aim and scope of the Journal. Only those manuscripts approved by every individual author and that were not published before in or sent to another journal, are accepted for evaluation.Changing the name of an author (omission, addition or order) in papers submitted to the Journal requires written permission of all declared authors.Plagiarism, duplication, fraud authorship/denied authorship, research/data fabrication, salami slicing/salami publication, breaching of copyrights, prevailing conflict of interest are unethical behaviors. All manuscripts not in accordance with the accepted ethical standards will be removed from the publication. This also contains any possible malpractice discovered after the publication. Plagiarism Submitted manuscripts that pass preliminary control are scanned for plagiarism using iThenticate software. If plagiarism/self-plagiarism will be found authors will be informed. Editors may resubmit manuscript for similarity check at any peer-review or production stage if required. High similarity scores may lead to rejection of a manuscript before and even after acceptance. Depending on the type of article and the percentage of similarity score taken from each article, the overall similarity score is generally expected to be less than 15 or 20%. Double Blind Peer-Review After plagiarism check, the eligible ones are evaluated by the editors-in-chief for their originality, methodology, the importance of the subject covered and compliance with the journal scope. The editor provides a fair double-blind peer review of the submitted articles and hands over the papers matching the formal rules to at least two national/international referees for evaluation and gives green light for publication upon modification by the authors in accordance with the referees’ claims.
