Archiving Policy

The Malaysian Journal of Computing and Engineering Technology (MJCET) is committed to ensuring the permanent availability, accessibility and preservation of all published scholarly content.

MJCET maintains digital preservation and archiving through multiple recognized systems and institutional infrastructure, including:

• LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) distributed preservation network
  https://journal.uitm.edu.my/ojs/index.php/MJCET/gateway/lockss
• CLOCKSS (Controlled LOCKSS) archival preservation system
  https://journal.uitm.edu.my/ojs/index.php/MJCET/gateway/clockss
• Institutional repository storage managed by Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM)
  https://ir.uitm.edu.my/view/journal/mjcet
• Secure journal hosting infrastructure and routine system backups

These preservation mechanisms provide redundancy, decentralized archiving and long-term preservation of the scholarly record to ensure continued access to published content.

JIBE supports standard metadata and interoperability protocols to enhance discoverability, indexing and long-term accessibility, including:

• OAI-PMH (Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting)
• Structured XML metadata
• Crossref metadata registration

All published articles are assigned a Digital Object Identifier (DOI) through Crossref to ensure persistent identification, stable citation linking and reliable long-term access.

Published articles remain permanently accessible as part of the journal’s scholarly record, including in the event of journal discontinuation or platform migration.
