**** Overview ****
Social computing is concerned with the intersection of social behaviour and
computing systems, creating or recreating social conventions and contexts
through the use of software and technology. Various social computing
applications such as blogs, email, instant messaging, social networking
(Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google+ etc.), wikis, and social bookmarking
have been widely popularised by providing digital platforms for social
interaction. Such applications have been profoundly change social
behaviours and digital life styles of humankind whilst pushing the
boundaries of Internet technologies. While people can enjoy or even indulge
in the benefits such as freedom and convenience brought about by social
computing, various critical issues such as trust, privacy, HCI design, and
the modelling as well as understanding of social behaviours via
computational means provide significant challenges.
SCA (Social Computing and its Applications) was created to provide a prime
international forum for researchers, industry practitioners and domain
experts to exchange the latest fundamental advances in the state of the art
and practice of Social Computing and its broadly related areas.
