DyNo: 1st International Workshop on Dynamics in Networks

DyNo
Description:

In the last years we witnessed to a shift from static network analysis to a dynamic networks analysis, i.e., the study of networks whose structure change over time. As time goes by, all the perturbations which occur on the network topology due to the rise and fall of nodes and edges have repercussions on the network phenomena we are used to observe. As an example, evolution over time of social interactions in a network can play an important role in the diffusion of an infectious disease.

Lipari School on Computational Complex Systems "Mapping the World, from open data to crowdsourcing and bottom-up society: models, algorithms and applications"

Lipari Summer School 2015
Description:
This summer school will provide opportunities to collect experience with modern data analysis, in particular Big Data analytics. This includes subjects such as how to mine data in the Internet and data of Social Media. Moreover, participants will be able to work with us on the Planetary Nervous System. The Planetary Nervous System is a large-scale distributed research platform that will provide real-time social mining services as a public good. Existing Big Data systems threaten social cohesion as they are designed to be closed, proprietary, privacy-intrusive and discriminatory.

Description:

In this presentation we will review current research projects in progress at the Institute for Big Data Analytics at Dalhousie University, Halifax, Canada. While we are involved in a variety of applied projects, their common denominator is that the data is derived, directly or indirectly, from different human activities: shopping, transporting goods, moving around cities, and discussing issues.

Big Data and Big Water: Mining Ocean Vessel Trajectory Data

Start:
2015/04/15 11:00 Europe/Rome
