*Call for Paper – The 7th International Workshop on Mobile Data Management, Mining, and Computing on Social Networks (MobiSocial 2022)* Social network and mining research has advanced rapidly with the prevalence of the online social websites and instant messaging social communications systems. In addition, thanks to the recent advances in deep learning, many novel applications with mobile devices and social networks have been proposed and deployed. These social network systems are usually characterized by complex network structures and abundant contextual information. Moreover, by incorporating the spatial dimension, mobile and location-based social networks are now immersed in people’s everyday life via numerous innovative websites. In addition, mobile social networks can be exploited to foster many interesting applications and analysis, such as recommendations of locations and travel planning of friends, location-based viral marketing, community discovery, group mobility and behavior modeling. The 7th International Workshop on Mobile Data Management, Mining, and Computing on Social Networks (MobiSocial 2022) will serve as a forum for researchers and technologists to discuss the state-of-the-art, present their contributions, and set future directions in data management, machine learning and knowledge mining for mobile social networks. The topics of interest related to this workshop include, but are not limited to: - Mobile sensing - Deep learning for mobile social networks - Blockchain for social networks - Graph mining - Contextual mobile social network analysis - Storing, indexing and querying of graph data - Distributed graph processing - Mobile social interaction and personalized search - Dynamics and evolution patterns of social networks, trend prediction - Analysis and mining of location-based social networks - Classification models and their applications in social recommender systems. - Processing of social media stream - Influence models and their applications in social environment. - Competitive viral marketing - Privacy and security in social networks - Privacy-preserving and precision-aware protocol/algorithm design for epidemic data collection - Mobile and distributed learning (e.g., federated learning, gossip learning, etc.) on Social Internet-o-Things (SIoTs) for epidemic source identification - Advanced AI techniques to support timely interactivity data analysis for Metaverse - Mobile healthcare - Modeling trust and reputation in mobile social networks. - Moving object tracking, indexing and retrieval for social applications - Location and trajectory mining of social data - Opinion mining for location related information - Location privacy, data sharing and security - Mobile and ubiquitous computing for location- based social networks - Cloud computing for location-based social data - Innovative mobile social networking applications - Multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary research on mobile social networks - Model compression - Cross-layer design for SIoT and contact networks, e.g., cross-layer interaction mining, cross-layer inference, federated multimodal search from interactive SIoT and contact networks, etc. - Epidemiology-aware SIoT alarm to preventing and containing the epidemic spread, and mobility- and social-aware recommendation for trip, activity, and route with social distancing Important Dates: Paper submission deadline: March 25, 2022 Notification of acceptance: April 11, 2022 Camera-ready due: April 22, 2022 Workshop: June 6 (tentative) Workshop website: https://sites.google.com/view/mobisocial-2022/home

CSCW SI: Materializing activism
by Karin Hansson 28 Jan '22

28 Jan '22

Finally! The special issue Materializing activism is published: https://link.springer.com/journal/10606/volumes-and-issues/30-5 Thank you, all anonymous reviewers, for your contributions. I think this SI makes an important methodological contribution to the field, and I am very proud to finally have it in place. Best regards, Karin Hansson On the behalf of the guest editors Teresa Cerratto Pargman and Shaowen Bardzell About the SI: Online activism showcases how available digital tools allow social movements to emerge, scale up, and extend globally by fundamentally enabling new forms of power. This special issue brings together eight research articles that engage with the collaborative efforts embedded in various types of activism by studying features such as the socio-technical systems involved; how the activism is organized; relations between traditional and social media; and the complex network of systems, information, people, values, theories, histories, ideologies, and aesthetics that constitutes such activisms. The articles show the spaces in which this activism materializes, and particularly their situation in several intersecting dimensions including motivation, culture, language, and infrastructure. Together, these articles reflect the methodological breadth required to materialize online activism and the need to develop a more nuanced conceptualization of the media ecologies involved. By mapping out how activism is enabled and constrained by human-computer interfaces, this special issue contributes to open up the black box of online activism.

New book published - online book launch today
by Jacob Johanssen 28 Jan '22

28 Jan '22

Event Horizon: Sexuality, Politics, Online Culture, and the Limits of Capitalism Bonni Rambatan and Jacob Johanssen (Zer0 Books) In an age where Silicon Valley continues to dictate what it means to innovate a painless future, knowledge and enjoyment are fertile breeding grounds of political contestation. But it’s not exactly democracy. Instead, we are controlled through tools and platforms that turn us into data for the profit of billionaires. Control has become so playful that we carry it in our pockets, as we continue to crave for likes and followers through expressing shared hatred towards the other in our cute little online circles. Because on the internet today, everything is cute: from selfie filters to gamified metrics on social media, from Tinder matches to racist memes on 4chan. Amidst all this cuteness, hate crimes continue to take more and more lives each day. Through a psychoanalytic interrogation of the intersections of online culture, sexuality, and politics, Bonni Rambatan and Jacob Johanssen explore such horizons at the limits of capitalism. Combining a predominantly Lacanian approach with the thoughts of critical theorists such as Hiroki Azuma, Byung-Chul Han and Mari Matsuda, as well as the work of thinkers and poets Audre Lorde and Richard Siken, Event Horizon examines how capitalist ideology functions in our current moment—and, more importantly, how it breaks down. More information: https://www.johnhuntpublishing.com/zer0-books/our-books/event-horizon-sexua… There is still time to register for the online book launch today: 2pm GMT - 8am CT - 9pm WIT - 10pm SST https://www.eventbrite.com/e/event-horizon-book-launch-tickets-239460050457
