[[ INTRODUCTION ]]
Based on shared research interests between these two communities,
the IEEE WMUTE 2012/DIGITEL 2012 conferences will be jointly held
in Takamatsu, Kagawa, Japan. Participants of both events will
be able to interact, discuss and exchange ideas which we hope can
stimulate more exciting ideas for future research. Therefore, this
joint conference aims to promote a new line of research and practice
that highlights both social and technological innovation in order
to support and amalgamate contemporary social learning theories.
This theme-based jointed conference will expose the results of
current research efforts and practices in these fields, as well
as identify future challenges and research priorities relevant
to both communities.
