***** AMCIS 2021 - Social Computing Track: Call For Mini-track Proposals - Due by October 16, 2020 *****

We invite the submission of mini-track proposals for the Social Computing track at the 26th Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS 2021), which will be held on August 5-7 in Montreal, Canada. AMCIS 2021 brings together academics and industry professionals around the world to exchange knowledge related to the AMCIS 2021 theme: Digital Innovation and Entrepreneurship.

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 2021;

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

c) Provide a summary report to authors based on reviews

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

e) 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 2021 website (up to 150 words);

d) call for papers for your mini-track.
