A Comprehensive Analysis of the Workshop on the Implications of Computing in Society from 2020 to 2024
Abstract
This article presents a comprehensive analysis of the research presented in the first five editions of the Workshop on the Impact of Computing in Society from 2020 to 2024. Using an approach that combines content analysis and bibliometric methods, we examine the prevalent themes, research trends, the network of authors, and the scientific productivity of the event. The results reveal the main interests of the academic community regarding the social and ethical implications of Computing and point to possible directions for future research in this area.References
