Modeling and Simulation of Social-Behavioral Phenomena in Creative Societies (MSBC-2019)
International EURO Mini Conference
September 18-20, 2019
Vilnius, Lithuania
In the multidisciplinary MSBC-2019 conference, we invite to participate researchersand practitioners from computational science, social science, operations research, artificial intelligence, humanities, and other research areas. The conference MSBC–2019 aims to create an open panel for active dialogue among researchers and practitioners in four sections - theories and concepts, methods, modelling and simulation, and real-life applications. Participants are also welcome to submit to some more specialized invited sessions like ‘Globalization and Sustainability: the Theoretical and Methodological Approach', ‘AI and Agent-based Simulation of Social Phenomena', ‘Social Capital and Social Networks: Conceptual Framework and Research Methodologies', 'Application of Econophysics in Economics and Social Sciences', 'Social Impact of Medicine and Public Health', and 'Emotion Modeling and Computer Recognition'.
