Abstract

Many social, societal and organizational problems, in the information age, are interrelated and need to be solved jointly by means of multidisciplinary projects, interdisciplinary communications and/or trans–disciplinary concepts and methodologies. Informatics, Cybernetics and Cyber–Technologies (ICCT) are, by definition and by nature, transversal to many disciplines and, as such, are special means for the multi–, inter–, and trans–disciplinary approaches required. ICCT are helping in the solutions of an increasing social, societal and organizational problems, but they are also generating new kind of problems and raising unfamiliar questions. The processes of answering these questions and finding possible solutions to these kinds of problems require as much as of scientific/engineering approaches, as of conceptual/reflexive studies. Both, analogical and logical thinking are also required, in different complementary studies, as well as combined in the same one. In this context logical thinking without the analogical one would be sterile, and analogical thinking without the logical one would be dangerous for being prone to hidden errors and mistakes. In the context of this framework, the basic purpose of the Organizing Committee of SOIC 2010 is to a provide a forum for disciplinary and interdisciplinary communications, where researchers (in Social and Natural Sciences, as well as in Engineering), intellectuals, policy/decision makers and Consultants would share the results of their research, studies and thoughts, with regards to societies and private/public organizations in the context of the Information Age. Accordingly, the Organizing and the Program Committees of SOIC 2010 invite researchers, academics, consultants and policy/decision makers to submit research papers as well as position papers based on intellectual reflection, conceptual studies or real life experience. The content of the papers to be submitted may be oriented to the presentation of solutions, results and answers as well as to problems and reflexive questioning. <a href="http://www.iiis2010.org/imsci/Website/PapersAcceptance.a… decisions related to submitted papers will be based on their respective content review and/or on the respective authorâ€™s CV. Invited papers will not be reviewed and their acceptance decision will be based on the topic and the respective authorâ€™s CV.</a> The suggested areas are based on the relationships between society/organizations and Informatics, in one hand, and between society/organizations and cybernetics/cyber–technologies, by the other.
