Call for Papers

Large-scale networks with complex interaction patterns between
elements are found in abundance in Communication Networks like: social
networks, blog & collaborative networks, WWW, P2P, DTN, Sensors... In
the last decade many research efforts contributed to establishing the
concept of a network science to characterize, model, and analyze
complex networks. Network Science founds applications in a variety of
domains and show a mainstream research topic of interest for
theoretical physicists, epidemiologists, biologist, economists, and
computer scientists.

For the communication networking community there is a strong research
interest in the analysis of the structure and properties of dynamic
networks at several layers: network/communication layers but also at
the social/application layers. Understanding how the interplay of
these different layers of complex networks happens and the potential
mutual effects they may have on each other in a dynamic graph context
is a key challenge.

Topics
- Bio-inspired networks
- Correlation of different types of social networks
- Delay tolerant and disruption tolerant networks (DTN)
- Discrete optimization and algorithms
- Dynamical processes (proliferation, diffusion etc.)
- Game theoretic models, pricing and incentives on dynamic networks
- Implications of social networking on distributed network/systems
- Mobility modeling and management
- Robustness & Stability of dynamical networks
- Sensor Networks
- Social networks
- Characterizing and analyzing dynamic networks
- Tools and methods for collecting, analyzing, or visualizing data
from dynamic networks
