EAI PerSoM 2022 will be held as an on-site conference with an option to present remotely (or as a fully-fledged online conference if the situation prevents the event from taking place on-site).
Although we will miss having everyone meet and connect in person, we feel strongly that knowledge exchange must continue, if not more so. That is why Accepted Authors who are unable to attend the event in person will be given an option to present remotely. In any case, all matters related to publication and indexing will remain unchanged. EAI is actively monitoring the COVID-19 situation to ensure the safety, comfort and quality of experience for attendees and a successful course of the event in 2022.
Accepted Authors will be notified about the final decision regarding the conference setting before the Camera-ready deadline.
Scope
The fast expansion and pervasive use of online resources like the Web, Microblogging sites and Social Media is making available an enormous and continuous stream of user-generated contents containing invaluable information that can be used to understand, in near real time, human life dynamics worldwide. Besides, social geo-tagged data combines textual, temporal, geographical and network data, opening up unique opportunities to study the interplay between human mobility and social structure.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforing our world, changing the landscape of key sectors like healthcare, mobility, finance, urban contexts. With the increasing availability of geo-tagged social data and rapid progress of machine learning and deep learning algorithms, AI and big data analytics are enabling unprecedented analysis of such novel data sources. Pervasive knowledge and collective intelligence is a cutting-edge research area across diverse fields and disciplines with the common objective of addressing challenging issues and questions about human phenomena and behavior through the lens of web and social media while introducing novel tools to model and process huge amount of unstructured big data.
The Conference will be a new venue for bringing researchers from different disciplines in the fields of Pervasive Computing, Web and Social Media to discuss and promote ideas and practices about pervasive knowledge and collective Intelligence in this fields. In this regard, we solicit theoretical as well as application-oriented research studies on relevant topics related to new perspectives in social theories, complex networks, data science, knowledge management, comprising methodologies, algorithms, evaluation benchmarks and tools for the development and application of algorithms for analyzing web and social media.

All conference papers undergo a thorough peer review process prior to the final decision and publication. This process is facilitated by experts in the Technical Program Committee during a dedicated conference period. Standard peer review is enhanced by EAI Community Review which allows EAI members to bid to review specific papers. All review assignments are ultimately decided by the responsible Technical Program Committee Members while the Technical Program Committee Chair is responsible for the final acceptance selection.
