Systems in which people and computers work together in a socially intelligent manner represent a new form of computing that brings together the challenges of traditional computing (e.g., algorithms, information representation, information acquisition, data quality) with those of human interaction (e.g., cognition, social interaction, culture, learning) and indeed a whole host of new challenges related to the combination of humans and computers (e.g., computer reasoning about human knowledge and abilities, socially-intelligent human-computer interaction, social computing). This award supports a Doctoral Symposium (DS), June 9, 2011 for graduate students who are developing SoCS related research topics. Doctoral students pursing SoCS research face numerous challenges, including defining research that spans computing and human elements, but also identifying meaningful evaluation for their research (often in the absence of close precedents) and positioning their research to fulfill the requirements of disciplinary dissertation committees. The doctoral symposium will help students hone their dissertation projects so that they can make better contributions to the solution of these intellectual challenges, and also help them build a social network of fellow doctoral students and more senior researchers to support their careers.There are both short and long-term benefits from this work. In the short term, the DS will provide significant feedback to the students selected to participate in the DS. In the long-term, we expect that students who participate in the DS will help establish critical research trajectories for SoCS and SoCS related topics. Students who participate in the DS will be well positioned to provide feedback to their peers who may also be interested in SoCS topics.

其中人和计算机以社会智能方式一起工作的系统代表了一种新的计算形式，其将传统计算的挑战（例如，算法、信息表示、信息获取、数据质量）与人类交互的那些（例如，认知、社会互动、文化、学习）以及实际上与人类和计算机的结合相关的一系列新挑战（例如，关于人类知识和能力的计算机推理、社会智能人机交互、社会计算）。该奖项支持博士研讨会（DS），2011年6月9日为研究生谁正在开发SoCS相关的研究课题。从事SoCS研究的博士生面临着许多挑战，包括定义跨越计算和人类元素的研究，但也要为他们的研究确定有意义的评估（通常在没有密切先例的情况下），并将他们的研究定位为满足学科论文委员会的要求。博士研讨会将帮助学生完善他们的论文项目，以便他们能够为解决这些智力挑战做出更好的贡献，并帮助他们建立一个由博士生和更多高级研究人员组成的社会网络，以支持他们的职业生涯。这项工作有短期和长期的好处。在短期内，DS将为被选中参加DS的学生提供重要的反馈。从长远来看，我们希望参加DS的学生将有助于建立SoCS和SoCS相关主题的关键研究轨迹。参加DS的学生将能够很好地向可能对SoCS主题感兴趣的同龄人提供反馈。
