CALL FOR PAPERS ************************************************************ Computational Approaches to Social Modeling 2012 Omaha, Nebrasca June 4-6, 2012 http://www.chasm.ws
************************************************************
Modern life is infused with a myriad of gadgets and new technologies that are quickly becoming online extensions of our offline lives. How we interact with others, where we are and where we go are all facets that are increasingly captured with ever greater detail by our online tools and gadgets.The digital traces constantly produced by these tools create hitherto unseen possibilities for the study of human behavior, but also pose their own challenges. The avalanche of data we are witnessing demands new tools and concepts to be analyzed and the new problems that are within our reach demand new algorithms and models to be developed.
This workshop aims to bring together practitioners of both computer science and social science so that both may better understand the challenges faced by each other and how best they may collaborate to overcome them.
Topics of Interest:
* Measures, metrics in characterization of Social Networks * Social Media * Human mobility, models and data * Epidemic Modeling * Social and Behavioral Changes * Dynamics and Evolution of Social Systems
* Computational Social Science * Human Dynamics * Prediction and Prediction Markets (Wisdom of Crowds) * Collective Behavior * Voter Behavior * Social Movements * Analysis of Proxy Data
Important Dates:
* Paper submission: Jan 16, 2012 * Notification of Acceptance: Feb 9, 2012 * Camera Ready: March 1, 2012
Organizers:
* Bruno Gonçalves * Nicola Perra
Program Committee (Alphabetically):
* Alain Barrat (CNRS, France) * Francesco Bonchi (Yahoo! Research Barcelona, Spain) * Carlos Castillo-Ocaranza (Yahoo! Research Barcelona, Spain) * Ciro Cattuto (ISI Foundation, Torino, Italy) * Alessandro Flammini (Indiana University, USA)
