The First International Symposium on Social and Community Intelligence
(SCI-11)
In Conjunction with UbiComp 2011
Beijing, China, September 18, 2011
http://www.ayu.ics.keio.ac.jp/members/bingo/SCI/index.html

------------
**Overview**
Social and community intelligence (SCI) defines a new paradigm that aims at
revealing the individual/group behaviors, social interactions, as well as
community dynamics (e.g., city hot spots, traffic jams) by mining the
digital traces left by people while interacting with cyber-physical spaces.
The digital traces are generated mainly from three information sources:
Internet and Web applications, wireless sensor networks, mobile/wearable
devices. The scale and richness of the multimodal, mixed data sources
present us an opportunity to compile the digital footprints into a
comprehensive picture of individual?s daily life facets, transform our
understanding of our lives, organizations and societies, and enable
completely innovative services in areas like human health, public safety,
city resource management, environment monitoring, and transportation
management.

This symposium aims to provide an international forum for the discussion of
challenges in the fields of SCI, including theoretical studies, practical
issues, emerging technologies and applications. The topics of interests
include, but are not limited to, the followings:

Social Media Mining
Online Community Analysis
Mobile Social Networking
Socially-Aware Computing
Reality Mining
Community Detection and Social Behavior Analysis
Urban Sensing
Semantic Social Web
Infrastructure Support for SCI Systems
Security, Trust, and Privacy Issues in SCI
Multi-Source Data Aggregation in SCI
SCI Applications and Services
