Description
Network science is a mathematically-rich, multi-disciplinary field that studies a vast set of problems from social networks, biology, chemistry, power systems, and information retrieval. The goal of network science is to understand the commonalities and differences among the graphs and networks underlying these problems, their impact on each application, and the new mathematics needed to accomplish these tasks. For instance, one of the most striking features of many natural, social and technological networks is that they lack the regularity of grids and meshes that are common in engineering and scientific computing.
The goal of this workshop is to provide the SIAM community that studies these problems with a venue to interact, collaborate, and discuss this emerging field. This year's workshop will be co-located with the SIAM Conference on Applications of Dynamical Systems 2015, which we hope will lead to active discussions and collaborations among participants.
Funding Agency
SIAM and the Conference Organizing Committee wish to extend their thanks and appreciation to the U.S. National Science Foundation for its support of this conference.
Submission Information
In the 2015 workshop, we invite contributions focused on all aspects of rigorous computational and mathematical techniques involved in network analysis, with a particular interest in contributions in the following areas:
- dynamic processes on networks and especially epidemic spreading models
- higher order network analysis including topological and geometric methods for networks
- applications to infrastructure and computer security networks
All submissions will be handled through the SIAM NetSci15 Easychair website using the SIAM Workshop on Network Science Latex style files. Please submit a two page abstract. We expect these abstracts to be presented as either long talks, short talks, or posters.
Submission Style Files
We have prepared a style file for the conference.
Important Deadlines
The deadline for contributions is January 10 January 19 (Deadline Extended). We expect to make notifications in mid February.
