*Special Issue of*

*Springer Journal of "Ambient Intelligence and Humanized Computing (AIHC)"*

*on Extracting Social and Community Intelligence from Digital Footprints*


*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 special issue strives to foster state-of-the-art research
pertaining to SCI, including theoretical studies, practical issues,
emerging technologies and innovative 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
