The workshop, which features a keynote speech by professor Jorge Contreras, aims to provide an opportunity for scholars and researchers to:

 - Explore and perhaps discover qualitative and quantitative methods applicable to standard setting for information networks
 - Discuss the feasibility of applying specific methods
 - Improve the understanding of specific methods
 - Identify new and existing data sources
 - Share open research questions and work-in-progress on methods
 - Receive feedback to improve the methods.

We will cover the following topics during the workshop:

 - Mixed Methods
 - Lessons from studying non-Internet standard-setting bodies
 - How to acquire data (standards, patents, conversations, outcome documents)
 - Network analysis
 - Computational methods
 - Discourse analysis
 - Ethnography

Looking forward to your participation! Feel free to get back to us should you need further info.
Best,

The Organizing Committee: Riccardo Nanni, Julien Rossi, Farzaneh Badii, Niels ten Oever and Corinne Cath
