HCSC’15

COMPSAC Symposium on Human and Social Computing

The rapid development of computing technologies has paved the way for involving human interactions in the cyber world. These interactions, including both human interactions with each other and with computing systems of any kind, are playing increasingly important roles in our everyday lives. Examples of such interactions include but are not limited to improving human life and wellbeing, discovering knowledge, enabling personalized and context- sensitive services, detecting interesting events/phenomena in the natural environment, enhancing system performance, etc. The HCSC symposium seeks full papers (10 pages maximum) and short papers (6 pages) that concentrate on:
1. how humans interact with each other through computing systems and environments (social networking, mediated communication)
2. how interactions between humans and other agents on social networking platforms can be leveraged to study social phenomena and for knowledge discovery
3. human-computer interaction and awareness of computing environments
4. how emerging technology such as wearable sensors are used in improving human lifestyle and well-being.
