Announcing the 11th International ACM Conference on Web Science will be held on June 30 – July 3, 2019, in Boston, MA, USA.
The WebSci conference brings together researchers from multiple disciplines, like computer science, sociology, economics, information science, anthropology, and psychology. Web Science is the emergent study of the people and technologies, applications, processes, and practices that shape and are shaped by the World Wide Web. Web Science aims to draw together theories, methods, and findings from across academic disciplines, and to collaborate with industry, business, government, and civil society, to develop our knowledge and understanding of the Web: the largest socio-technical network in human history.
