Objective:

The International Conference on Computational Aspects of Social Networks organized in Salamanca, Spain brings together an interdisciplinary venue for social scientists, mathematicians, computer scientists, engineers, computer users, and students to exchange and share their experiences, new ideas, and research results about all aspects (theory, applications and tools) of intelligent methods applied to Social Network, and to discuss the practical challenges encountered and the solutions adopted. Industrial Workshop/Tutorials and conference sessions will allow individuals interested in the theory, methods, or applications of social network analysis to share ideas and explore common interests.

Welcome to Salamanca, Spain and we look forward to seeing you during CASoN 2011!

We solicit original research and technical papers not published elsewhere. The papers can be theoretical, practical and application, and cover a broad set of intelligent methods, with particular emphasis on Social Network computing. Methods such as (but not restricted to) :

Knowledge Management

Multi-valued Logic

Semantic Networks

Rough Sets

Intelligent Agents

Ontologies

Reinforcement Learning
