Selected Areas in Communication Symposium: Social Networks Track

SCOPE AND MOTIVATION
Recently, social network research has advanced rapidly with the 
prevalence of online social applications and mobile social 
communications systems. Moreover, the ongoing pandemic via contact 
social networks has caused tremendous human life and economic loss 
around the world, and infodemic is one of the major social impacts that 
make people difficult to discriminate trustworthy sources, from false 
and manipulative information sources. Therefore, researchers are 
increasingly interested in addressing a wide spectrum of challenges in 
social networks, such as developing social-aware algorithms for 
communications systems, identifying the topological common structures 
and information/influence flows, analyzing the social media and 
evolutions of social graphs, and exploiting location-based and 
contextual information embedded in mobile social networks to create 
innovative applications. Due to the interdisciplinary nature, social 
networks have also attracted intensive research interests across 
multiple disciplines, including artificial intelligence, blockchain, big 
data analytics, information security and privacy protection, psychology, 
and marketing. In light of the above crucial needs, Selected Areas in 
Communication Symposium in Social Networks will serve as a forum for 
researchers and technologists to discuss the state-of-the-art, present 
their contributions, and set future directions in social networks.

TOPICS OF INTEREST
- Infrastructure, platform, protocol design, and optimization for mobile 
social networks, mobile social clouds, and social Internet-of-Things 
with Artificial Intelligence
- Social-aware network solutions and social network influence on 
(wireless) communications systems
- Cross-layer design for social networks and the underlying 
communications and network platforms, and subsequent new design paradigm 
for future (wireless) communications
- Network graph modeling, measurements, simulations, and experiments
- Analysis of dynamics and control of belief, influence, and rumor 
propagations in the evolutions of social networks
- Data mining, machine learning, information retrieval, signal 
processing, and artificial intelligence in social media and social contexts
- Trusted networking, privacy and security, user behaviors and dynamics, 
and digital right management, for big data in social networks
- Innovative social network applications and services to mobile 
Internet, multimedia networks, mobile-commerce, cyber-physical systems, 
and their potential social, economic, and cultural impacts
- Multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary research on social networks
