Social media is changing how we work and play. It is also changing the way we access and consume media, stay in touch with family and friends, as well as how we communicate with government and businesses. This mini-track focuses on research that brings together social media (or social networks) and data analytics. For example, research and practice that advances the state-of-the-art in the acquisition, management, and analysis of data originating primarily from social phenomena.
We welcome both theoretical and practical papers whose approaches are within the scope of data analytics and closely related areas (e.g., data warehousing, data mining and business intelligence).
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): ? Discovery, Collection, and Extraction of Social Media Data ? Cleaning, Curation and Provenance of Data in Social Networks ? Crowd or Cloud Computation on Social Media Data ? Data Modeling for Social Media ? Analysis of Dynamic Social Networks ? Social Search, Retrieval, and Ranking ? Performance and Scalability of Social Media Data Management ? Semantic Web and Linked Data: Meaning in Networked Connections ? Exploration and Analysis of Massive Social Networks ? Techniques for Meme Tracking
At last year?s HICSS conference, large complex data and web-scale information problems emerged as common themes across many of the mini-tracks. In recognition of this, for HICSS 2013, we encourage authors to address these themes from their own research perspectives. Authors are encouraged to bring the lens of their own background and expertise to focus on big data issues ranging from the analytics of the data itself, whether from social media or other data sets, to the design and evaluation of effective presentations for stakeholders. The process is simple; authors send their papers to the most relevant mini-track and after the refereeing, the mini-track chairs will consult to schedule presentations and draw connections.
