>The 5th conference on Applications of Social Network Analysis (ASNA
>2008) will again take place at the University of Zurich. ASNA 2008 will
>primarily provide an interdisciplinary venue with focus on applications
>of social network analysis; however, submissions on theoretical and
>methodological issues regarding SNA are also welcome. Submissions can
>take the form of research designs, theoretical (theory-building) papers
>or a presentation of research results, and should be written and
>presented in English. Abstracts of no more than 300 words have to be
>submitted by July 1 (send your abstract by e-mail to info[at] asna.ch).
>You will be notified about the acceptance of your submission by July 15,
>and will have to submit the full paper by August 15. Every paper will be
>discussed by a respondent, which means that by presenting every
>participant agrees to be a respondent for another paper. Presenters will
>have the opportunity to make their paper available to a broader audience
>on the conference website. Additionally, an edited volume containing the
>conference contributions will be published in 2009.
>
>This year's keynote will be simulcasted via the internet to a parallel
>event at Ritsumeikan University in Kyoto, Japan. Our Japanese colleagues
>will organize a session of ASNA2008 (codenamed "ASNA2008-Asia"), which
>will mainly focus on (the existing, emerging, or just possible)
>technological aspects of applications of social network analysis.
>ASNA-Asia is thought to become a forum for students and young
>researchers in Asia, who are or will be involved in the development of
>various "SNA-based" software systems.For this year it is a pilot and
>hopefully we will be able to extend the model next year by having one
>website but several simultaneous conferences around the globe on
>applications of social network analysis.
>
>The conference includes a keynote speech by Frank Schweitzer, Chair of
>Systems Design, ETH Zurich.
