Within this framework, the network properties of OSNEM can be used to capture multiple phenomena related to OSNEM, at different logical layers, from a technical perspective (e.g., OSNEM data management and information diffusion), as well as a societal perspective (e.g., the OSNEM users’ social structures). Moreover, the analysis of network dynamics represents one of the biggest challenges that emerged in recent years within the network science community. Therefore, this Special Issue will focus on the analysis of OSNEM from the standpoint of its network properties and dynamics at all scales, from macro- to meso- (e.g., community) to micro (e.g., ego network) scales. It will be particularly interesting to highlight the impact of network properties and dynamics on emerging phenomenon, such as diffusion of information, the acquisition of the role of influencer, trust among users, polarization of opinions, diffusion of fake news, etc. The Special Issue aims at engaging a multidisciplinary community. It also welcomes submissions applying a wide range of (computer- and network-science) techniques and tools to OSNEM for investigating the properties and roles of the network of (online) social relationships in the various sectors of the society (e.g., politics, economics, finance, health, entertainment). Topics include, but are not limited to: - OSNEM platforms, protocols and applications; - Decentralized, mobile and location-based OSNEM; - Dynamic Analysis of OSNEM - Trust, reputation, privacy and security in OSNEM; - Recommendations and advertising in OSNEM; - Measurement, analysis and modeling of popular OSNEM platforms (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Flickr, etc.); - BigData analysis of OSNEM seen as large- meso- or micro-scale complex networked systems; - Information extraction and search in OSNEM; - Complex-network analysis of OSNEM; - Measurement, analysis and modeling of social networked users’ behavior through OSNEM data; - Analysis of the use of OSNEM in the urban context; - Network challenges of crowdsourcing is OSNEM; - Network challenges in multidisciplinary applications of OSNEM (economics, medicine, society, politics, homeland security, etc.) - OSNEM event detection; - Evolutionary community / cluster discovery; - Dynamic network generative models; - Dynamic network embedding; - Dynamics of trends, information and opinion diffusion in OSNEM ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Schedule Manuscript submission deadline: May 31st, 2018 First notification: July 15, 2018 Submission of revised paper: September 9, 2018 Notification of acceptance: September 30, 2018 Guest Editors Remy Cazabet, Lyon University, France Andrea Passarella, IIT-CNR, Italy Giulio Rossetti, ISTI-CNR, Italy Fabrizio Silvestri, Facebook, UK ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Instructions for submission Manuscripts must not have been previously published nor currently under review by other journals or conferences. If prior work was published in a conference, the submitted manuscript should include a substantial extension of at least 35% novel contributions. In this case, authors are also required to submit their published conference articles and a summary document explaining the enhancements made in the journal version.
