Network Science

The main scientific objectives of network science are:

• to design efficient tools for measuring specific properties of large scale complex networks and their dynamics;

• to propose accurate graph and dynamics models (e.g., generators of random graph fulfilling measured properties);

• to use this knowledge with an algorithmic perspectives, for instance, for improving the QoS of routing schemes, the speed of information spreading, the selection of a target audience for advertisements, etc.

The ADR will focus on:

• Network sampling

• Epidemics in networks

• Search in networks

• Clustering of networks

• Detecting network central nodes

• Network evolution and anomaly detection
