Hi Ziko, 

in this case a satellite is a one- or half-day workshop that is hosted within a larger conference, in this case the 2015 edition of the conference on complex systems. Usually large conference host multiple satellites in parallel.

We are looking forward to your contributions! Wiki-related research has been featured prominently at previous editions of this workshop and we hope to see more of it!

Best, 

Giovanni

Hello, could anyone explain to me what a "satellite meeting" is? WP does use the term, but has no article about.
Kind regards
Ziko

​Call for Participation

Please consider submitting a contribution to the Computational Social Science satellite workshop, co-located with CCS’15.

What: Computational Social Science — CCS’15 Satellite Workshop
Where: Tempe, Arizona
When: October 1 2015
Submission deadline: June 21 2015

Continuing an already consolidated pattern since 2013, the Conference in Complex Systems (www.ccs2015.org) hosts the satellite workshop on Computational Social Science.

The aim of this satellite is to address the question of ICT-mediated social phenomena emerging over multiple scales, ranging from the interactions of individuals to the emergence of self-organized global movements. Particular attention will be devoted to the following topics:

- Interdependent social contagion process
- Peer production and mass collaboration
- Temporally evolving networks and dynamics of social contagion
- Cognitive aspects of belief formation and revision
- Online communication and information diffusion
- Viral propagation in online social network
- Crowd-sourcing; herding behaviour vs. wisdom of crowds
- E-democracy and online government-citizen interaction
- Online socio-political mobilizations
- Public attention and popularity
- Temporal and geographical patterns of information diffusion
- User-information interplay
- Group formation, evolution and group behavior analysis.
- Modeling, tracking and forecasting dynamic groups in social media.
- Community detection and dynamic community structure analysis.
- Social simulation, cultural, opinion, and normative dynamics.
- Empirical calibration and validation of agent-based social models.
- Models of social capital, collective action, social movements.
- Coevolution of network and behavior.

Please address any questions to css2015@indiana.edu

Thank you.
