[Rdap] Computational Archival Science (CAS) Workshop #4 at IEEE Big Data 2019 (Los Angeles) - call for papers

[Richard Marciano]

The organizers of the Computational Archival Science (CAS) Workshop at IEEE
Big Data 2019 <http://cci.drexel.edu/bigdata/bigdata2019/> have issued a
formal call for papers. This is the 4th workshop at IEEE Big Data
addressing Computational Archival Science, following on from workshops in
2016 <http://dcicblog.umd.edu/cas/ieee_big_data_2016_cas-workshop/%22>
(D.C.), 2017 <https://dcicblog.umd.edu/cas/ieee_big_data_2017_cas-workshop/>
(Boston), and 2018
<http://dcicblog.umd.edu/cas/ieee-big-data-2018-3rd-cas-workshop/%22>
(Seattle). All papers accepted for the workshop will be included in the
Conference Proceedings published by the IEEE Computer Society Press, made
available at the conference, which takes place Dec. 9 – 12, 2019 in Los
Angeles, CA, USA.



This day-long workshop will explore the conjunction (and its consequences)
of emerging methods and technologies around big data with archival practice
and new forms of analysis and historical, social, scientific, and cultural
research engagement with archives. We aim to identify and evaluate current
trends, requirements, and potential in these areas, to examine the new
questions that they can provoke, and to help determine possible research
agendas for the evolution of computational archival science in the coming
years. At the same time, we will address the questions and concerns
scholarship is raising about the interpretation of ‘big data’ and the uses
to which it is put, in particular appraising the challenges of producing
quality – meaning, knowledge and value – from quantity, tracing data and
analytic provenance across complex ‘big data’ platforms and knowledge
production ecosystems, and addressing data privacy issues.



Important dates:

   -

   Oct 1, 2018: Due date for full workshop papers submission
   -

   Oct 22, 2018: Notification of paper acceptance to authors
   -

   Nov 10, 2019: Camera-ready version of accepted papers
   -

   Dec 9 – 12, 2019: Workshop [exact date TBD]
