In this seminar, we journey through the modern landscape of social computing, an area of computer science that is concerned with the intersection of social behavior and computational systems. It is based on creating or recreating social conventions and social contexts through the use of software and technology. In this seminar we explore recent topics in social computing like Social Bots and Agents, Social Networks, Socio-Political Campaigns, Recommender Systems, Digital identities and Federated Identity Management&Data, Micro-Credentials, Social Augmented Reality and Gamification
