AMCIS 2020 - Social Computing Track: Call For Mini-track Proposals - *Due
by October 18, 2019*



We invite the submission of mini-track proposals for the *Social Computing
track* at the 25th Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS 2020),
which will be held on August 12-16, 2020 in in Salt Lake City, UT, USA.
AMCIS 2020 brings together academics and industry professionals around the
world to exchange knowledge related to the AMCIS 2020 theme: *A Vision for
the Future*.



Social Computing track description:

As the quantity of data captured about and shared by individuals has
exploded over the last decade, there has been a resurgence of interest in
information technologies - such as social networking platforms,
collaborative filtering and reputation management systems - that facilitate
social interaction among individuals. With the recognition that Social
Computing straddles research at the intersection of social behavior and
computing technologies, we would like to encourage papers that approach
this topic from a plurality of research methods and perspectives. This
track welcomes submissions that explore how these Social Computing
technologies have transformed how people work, communicate, and play
together.



Mini-track chairs will be responsible for:

a) promoting their mini-track to generate manuscript submissions to AMCIS
2020;

b) soliciting and assigning reviewers for manuscripts submitted to the
mini-track;

c) making recommendations to track chairs about each manuscript submitted
to the mini-track;

d) nominating best papers and reviewers



To submit a mini-track proposal, you must submit:

a) mini-track chairs (names, emails, affiliation);

b) mini-track title;

c) short description of mini-track for the AMCIS 2020 website (up to 150
