Introduction
=============

Behavioral, economic and socio-cultural aspects are increasingly recognized
as key components in business intelligence and problem-solving.
Accordingly, Behavioral, Economic and Socio-cultural Computing (BESC) has
been emerged as  new scientific fields that study effective methodologies,
techniques and tools for
(1) deeply understanding cognitive and psychological capacities of human
beings, and cultural, economic, social, political, legal, online, social
media, spatial, environmental, and biological factors, systems,
organizations, and institutions;

(2) effectively representing, modeling, analyzing, simulating, evaluating
and managing behavioral, economic, social and cultural phenomena, factors,
characteristics, dynamics, evolution, consequence and knowledge;

(3) developing quantitative and computational methodologies, approaches,
algorithms, tools and systems towards a deeper understanding of dynamics
and evolution, relations and interactions, structures and distributions,
rules, patterns and exceptions, effects and consequences, and intelligence
and emergence in individual and collective BESC entities, systems and
organizations;

(4) delivering a deep modeling, analysis and learning of social concepts
including trust, credibility, privacy and influence, and intrinsic
behavior/economic/socio-cultural patterns and impacts; and

(5) showcasing the intellectual, value, process, and impact contexts that
govern the development and use of science and technology into various BESC
applications and domains.

BESC'2014 aims to increase potential collaborations and partnerships by
bringing together academic researchers and industry practitioners from data
mining, statistics and analytics, business and marketing, finance and
politics, and behavioral, economic, social and psychological sciences with
the objectives to present updated research efforts and progresses on
foundational and emerging interdisciplinary topics of BESC, exchange new
ideas and identify future research directions.


Scope and Topics
=================

BESC'2014 encourages topics related but not limited to:
(1) Computational foundations: including
statistical/mathematical/logic/evolutionary/formal methodologies, models
and theories for engineering, representing, visualizing, analyzing,
modeling, evaluating and managing cognitive, behavioral, economic,
political, online, social media-based, and socio-cultural phenomena,
factors, interactions, relations, structures, contexts and situations,
systems and organizations; and for understanding their formation and
evolution, dynamics, self-organization, mobility, learning and adaptation,
change and emergence, influence, conventions, trust, norms, protocols,
roles, responsibilities, utility, effects, privacy, risk, security, and
decision-making and formation processes;

(2) Techniques and approaches: including specific tools, algorithms,
models, systems, evaluation metrics for acquisition, extraction, detection,
summarization, knowledge representation, visualization, classification,
regression, clustering, pattern discovery, factor/event/effect analysis,
reasoning, relation/structure/distribution analysis,
collaborations/conflicts/negotiation mechanisms and crowding/community
formation/grouping and diffusion understanding of BESC related systems and
organizations; and for collecting, analyzing, managing and utilizing
BESC-related networking, textural, imaging, sequential, spatio-temporal,
multimedia, graphic and streaming data; and

(3) Applications and systems:  including innovative use and showcases,
simulation and visualization of BESC problems not limited to networking,
socialization, globalization, exception and risk management, crisis
analysis and management, security, compliance, recommendation, retrieval
and search, innovation, and decision-support.

Submission Guidelines
=====================

Paper submissions should be limited to a maximum of seven (7) pages, in the
IEEE 2-column format (see the IEEE Press Proceedings Author Guidelines:
http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html
). All submissions will be blind reviewed by the Program Committee on the
basis of technical quality, relevance to conference topics of interest,
originality, significance, and clarity. Author names and affiliations must
not appear in the submissions, and bibliographic references must be
adjusted to preserve author anonymity. Accepted papers will be published in
the conference proceedings by the IEEE Press.
