The 9th IEEE International Conference on Social Computing and Networking (SocialCom 2016) will be held in the city of Atlanta, GA, USA during October 8-10, 2016. SocialCom was created to provide a prime international forum for researchers, industry practitioners and domain experts to exchange the latest fundamental advances in the state of the art and practice of Social Computing & Networking and its broadly related areas. SocialCom2016 is to bring together computer scientists, industrial engineers, and researchers to discuss and exchange experimental and theoretical results, novel designs, work-in-progress, experience, case studies, and trend-setting ideas in the areas of social computing and networking.
