The 14th ACM Conference on Web Science is an interdisciplinary conference where a multitude of research disciplines converge with the purpose of creating greater insight into a complex global Web than the sum of their individual parts. Keynote speakers are Leila Zia (Wikimedia Foundation) and m.c. schraefel (University of Southampton). The event will be held in Barcelona, Spain.

The ACM Conference on Hypertext and Social Media is a premium venue for high quality peer-reviewed research on hypertext theory, systems and applications. It is concerned with all aspects of modern hypertext research including social media, semantic web, dynamic and computed hypertext and hypermedia as well as narrative systems and applications. Keynote speakers will be announced soon. HT ’22 will be run in a hybrid mode, with the opportunity for speakers and attendees to participate onsite or online. We will be also be co-located with WebSci and UMAP.

The Conference on Innovation and Technology in Computer Science Education will cover all aspects of educating the next generation of computer scientists, including sessions on security, remote learning, informatics, game-based teaching, broadening participation in computing, exploring learner resilience and performance, and more. Elizabeth Oldham (Trinity College Dublin), Titus Winters (Google), and Letizia Jaccheri (Norwegian University of Science and Technology) will keynote. The event will be held in-person in Dublin, Ireland, and online.

The Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference includes workshops genetic algorithms, genetic programming, ant colony optimization and swarm intelligence, complex systems (artificial life, robotics, evolvable hardware, and more.
