Social computing and cyber-physical systems can be broadly defined as computational facilitation of social systems and the integration of computation with physical processes. The tight combination and coordination between systems' computational, physical, and social elements make it different from other forms of systems. Social computing and cyber-physical systems have recently become a central theme across a number of information and communication fields and attracted significant interest of researchers from computer science, computer engineering, electronic engineering, etc.
Topics covered include
Cyber-physical system architectures and infrastructures
Cyber-physical system integration and coordination
Cyber-physical system design methodology and tools
Cyber-physical system engineering and component developments
Social computing theories, system design and architectures
Social network analysis/mining, behaviour modelling, semantic web
Social computing in cyber-physical systems
Integration of computing/physical/social components
Security, privacy, trust, risk
Novel applications, e.g.
collaborative filtering, bookmaking, tagging, multi-agent systems
sensor-based systems, autonomous automotive systems avionics,
medical monitoring, process control systems, distributed robotics
IJSCCPS aims to establish an international forum for researchers and practitioners to publish scholarly articles and report various social computing and cyber-physical systems related issues.
Readership
The intended audience will include various academia, public and private sector members who are interested in and will benefit from social computing and cyber physical systems.
Contents
IJSCCPS publishes original papers, short papers, and review papers. Special Issues devoted to important topics in social computing and cyber-physical systems will occasionally be published.
