Scholars in the social sciences, arts, and humanities will share their work and perspectives on research computing. The goal is to help UW-Madison better understand the challenges of research computing, especially emergent issues unique to the social sciences, arts, and/or humanities, as well as areas of overlap with those found in the sciences. While research computing commonly concerns large-scale computational power and data storage, the rapid introduction of social media, mobile technologies, and other end-user computing into research contexts suggests new practices of research computing are emerging.
