Social Informatics can be broadly defined as the study of social aspects of computerization, including the role of information and communication technology (ICT) in social and organizational change, the use of ICT in social contexts, and the way that the social organization of ICT is influenced by social forces and social practices. Some Social Informatics scholars use computerization and big data to understand, predict and explain complex social technical phenomena. Some use social science approaches to study the complex relationships between people, ICT and work and play in a wide range of social and organizational settings. Social Informatics is an interdisciplinary research domain that includes social studies, human dynamics, computing science, and industrial engineering technologies that consider social context. It is one of the emerging themes across a number of information and communication technology fields and has attracted significant interest from not only researchers in computing, information science, and social sciences, but also software and online game vendors, web entrepreneurs, political analysts, and digital government practitioners. The International Conferences on Social Informatics have become a key forum for researchers and industry practitioners to exchange information regarding innovations and advances in the state of art and practice of social informatics.
