Multiple Network Modeling, Analysis and Mining2nd Edition - Satellite Symposium at NetSci2014Berkeley, California - Clark Kerr Campus of the University of California Monday, June 2nd, 2014: Starting @ 9AM - Ending @ 6PM. DescriptionA complex network is a model used to represent complex interacting phenomena such as social interactions among human beings, biological reactions in organisms and technological systems. Complex networks have been widely used by scholars from different fields to tackle a large number of real-world phenomena. Some important milestones in the recent scientific scenario, such as the ubiquitous emergence in different natural phenomena of small-world and scale-free structures, come from complex network analysis.Real-world phenomena may require very rich representations. For example, the entities under study may relate to each other for different reasons. In this case, complex networks considering only one kind of interaction are not sufficient anymore, and network scholars developed Multiple Network models. Multiple Networks are networks in which the nodes may be connected through different relations. Let us consider the case of a social network. At the present day, a person can establish a social relation with hundreds of different people. Are all these people "friends"? Is it possible to organize all these relationships in the same class? Of course not: we have relatives, sentimental relationships, work mates and several different reasons, and degrees, to call the people we know "friends" or "acquaintances". Such complex models demand an interdisciplinary approach. As the nature of these structures is multidimensional, also a multidimensional mind nexus is required to fully understand them. With this idea in mind, we open this symposium to network scientists from a disparate background set: from computer science to art history, from physics to economics. This symposium aims to be a starting point of an unified, interdisciplinary community focused on the study of multiple networks.
