SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS
4th International Conference on Behavioral, Economic, and Socio-Cultural 
Computing (BESC2017)  will  take  place  in  AGH  -  University of 
Science and Technology - Krakow - POLAND, 16-18 October, 2017, 
http://www.besc-conf.org/2017

BESC aims to become a premier forum in which academic researchers and 
industry practitioners from data  mining, artificial intelligence, 
statistics  and analytics, business and marketing, finance and politics, 
and behavioral,  economic, social and psychological sciences could 
present updated research efforts and progresses on foundational and 
emerging  interdisciplinary topics of BESC, exchange  new ideas and 
identify future research directions.

All accepted papers will be submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore as 
well  as other Abstracting and Indexing (A&I) services, e.g. EI, DBLP 
and Thomson Reuters  (Web of Science). Top quality papers after 
presented in the conference will be selected for extension and 
publication in several special issues of international journals, including
  1) World Wide Web Journal (Springer),
  2) Social Network Analysis and Mining (Springer)
  3) Information  Discovery and Delivery Journal (SSCl-Indexed).

This edition of the conference takes place in Krakow, at the AGH 
University of Science and Technology. Krakow is the second largest and 
one   of the oldest cities in Poland. The city is located in the 
southern part of Poland  in the Lesser Poland region.
The history of the city dates back to the 7th century.
Since the Middle Ages Krakow had been the capital of the Polish state 
until the 17th century  and has kept the character of a spiritual 
capital till the present day.
Poland is a member of the European Union since  May 2004 and Schengen 
Area since 2007.

The AGH University of Science and Technology (AGH-UST) is one of the 
leading technical  universities in Poland.  The university was 
established on 20th October, 1919, and was formerly known as the 
University of Mining and Metallurgy. Being mainly a technical school,
