*** Sixth Call for Contributions ***
ACM International Conference on Information Technology for Social
Good
(GoodIT 2022)
7–9 September, 2022, 5* St. Raphael Resort & Marina, Limassol,
Cyprus
https://cyprusconferences.org/goodit2022/
Scope
The ACM GoodIT conference seeks papers describing significant
research
contributions related to the application of information
technologies (IT) to social
good. Social good is typically defined as something that provides
a benefit to the general public. In this context, clean air and
water, Internet connection, education, and healthcare are all good
examples of social goods. However, new media innovations and the
explosion of online communities have added new meaning to the
term. Social good is now about global citizens uniting to unlock
the potential of individuals, technology, and collaboration to
create a positive societal impact.
GoodIT solicits papers that address important research challenges
related to, but not
limited to:
• Citizen science
• Civic intelligence
• Decentralized approaches to IT
• Digital solutions for Cultural Heritage
• Environmental monitoring
• Ethical computing
• Frugal solutions for IT
• Game, entertainment, and multimedia applications
• Health and social care
• IT for automotive
• IT for development
• IT for education
• IT for smart living
• Privacy, trust and ethical issues in ICT solutions
• Smart governance and e-administration
• Social informatics
• Socially responsible IT solutions
• Sustainable cities and transportation
• Sustainable IT
• Technology addressing the digital divide
Paper Submission
The papers should not exceed eleven (11) pages single-column,
including figures,
tables, and references in the new ACM format
(
https://cyprusconferences.org/goodit2022/index.php/authors/ ).
They must be original works and must not have been previously
published.
At least one of the authors of all accepted papers must register
and present the
work at the conference; otherwise, the paper will not be published
in the
proceedings. All accepted and presented papers will be included in
the conference
proceedings published in the ACM Digital Library.
In addition to a Main Track, the conference features 9 additional
Special Tracks.
More information on these tracks is available on the conference
web site.
Journal Special Issues and Best Paper Award
Selected papers will be invited to submit an extended version to
two special
journal issues:
• FGCS, Elsevier
(
https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/future-generation-computer-systems)
• MDPI Sensors, where the theme of the special issue will be
"Application of Information Technology (IT) to Social Good"
(
https://www.mdpi.com/journal/sensors/special_issues/topical_collection_goodit
). Specifically 5 papers will be invited free of charge and
another 5 papers will get a
20% discount on the publication fees.
Furthermore, MDPI Sensors will sponsor a Best Paper Award with the
amount of
400 CHF.
Work-in-Progress and PhD Track
Inside ACM GoodIT, the Work-in-Progress and PhD Track provides an
opportunity to
showcase interesting new work that is still at an early stage. We
encourage practitioners and researchers to submit to the
Work-in-Progress venue as it provides
a unique opportunity for sharing valuable ideas, eliciting
feedback on early-stage work, and fostering discussions and
collaborations among colleagues. Moreover, this track provides a
platform for PhD students to present and receive feedback on their
ongoing research. Students at different stages of their research
will have the
opportunity to present and discuss their research questions,
goals, methods and results. This is an opportunity to obtain
guidance on various aspects of their research
from established researchers and other PhD students working in
research areas related to technologies for social good.
Important: For this specific track, papers must not exceed nine
(9) pages
single column, including figures, tables, and references in the
new
ACM format
(
https://cyprusconferences.org/goodit2022/index.php/authors/ ).
Submission Instructions
All papers must be submitted electronically via the hotcrp web
site
(

will be able to
select the track where to submit your paper.
