Third International Conference on Computational Aspects of Social Networks, Salamanca, Spain
19 October 2011 - 19 October 2011
Spain
The Third International Conference on Computational Aspects of Social Networks will take place from 19 to 21 October 2011 in Salamanca, Spain.
Social networks provide a powerful abstraction of the structure and dynamics of diverse kinds of people or people-to-technology interaction. These network systems are usually characterised by the complex network structures and rich accompanying contextual information. Recent trends also indicate the usage of complex network as a key feature for next generation usage and exploitation of the internet.
The conference will focus on the foundations of social networks as well as case studies, empirical, and other methodological works related to the computational tools for the automatic discovery of internet-based social networks. It will also be an opportunity to compare and contrast the ethological approach to social behaviour in animals (including the study of animal tracks and learning by members of the same species) with web-based evidence of social interaction, perceptual learning, information granulation, the behavior of humans and affinities between web-based social networks.For further information, please visit: http://www.mirlabs.org/cason11/(opens in new window)
