IEEE CCNC'2010 Special Session on Social Networking
January 9-12, 2010 Las Vegas, USA http://www.ieee-ccnc.org/2010/ or http://sites.google.com/site/socnets2010/
Social Networks (SocNets) have attracted billions of active users and this critical mass of users are increasing exponentially. Internet social network applications such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter etc. are providing valuable social information on contacts and their relationships. Wireless and mobile devices which are capable of creating, storing, processing, forwarding and sharing content are socially connected in a new radical networking and adaptive architecture harnessing the social behavior and mobility of the users. Thus, SocNets enable the pervasive connectivity without the need to maintain fully connected always-on networks.
Such SocNets communities trigger exciting research interests in collaborative systems arising from the analysis of the structure and properties of SocNets. The use of private social information provides additional avenues for new networking operations --- for example, problems that allow the exploitation of SocNets to solve network and system security vulnerabilities, and how these new social network solutions can shape the design of secured distributed systems and networks; development of cross-layered architecture for diverse pervasive applications to distribute user-generated content based on social relationships and behaviors; etc. It also requires the cross-disciplinary research integration of computer science and engineering, biology, physics, anthropology, social sciences, etc.
The goal of this special session is to catalyze cross-disciplinary research discussions that are of relevance to new and novel computer networking ideas, applications and experimental results in the area of SocNets. We solicit papers covering various topics of interest that include (but are not limited to) the following:
-- Implications of social networking on future network architecture -- System design for social networks -- New social science of networks -- Physical and virtual social networks -- Social-based mobility -- Mobile and pervasive social networks -- Social community-based communication -- Real world applications of social network analysis and theory -- New social-inspired content creation and distribution networks -- New aspects of trust, privacy and security systems in social networking -- Data confidentiality and integrity in social networks
Important Dates
-- Submission Deadline: August 15, 2009 -- Acceptance Notification: September 10, 2009
Submission Instructions
Authors are invited to submit regular technical papers or position papers. The position papers should present novel technologies at an early stage of development or share future vision. All submissions should describe original, previously unpublished research, not currently under review by another conference or journal. Manuscripts should not exceed five (5) pages in double-column IEEE format. Please submit the paper through EDAS. Formatting details can be found under Submission Guidelines on the CCNC website.
