The Gephi team will present a demo paper at the ICWSM 2009, 3rd Int’l AAAI Conference on Weblogs and Social Media conference. We are very excited of taking part of this event, especially because this will be our first publication. The conference is set for May 17 – 20 in San Jose, California.
“The social and community driven aspects of our digital lives continue to rapidly increase, resulting in transformative behaviours and, significantly, publishing and distributing huge amounts of fascinating data. The International Conference on Weblogs and Social Media will meet once more in 2009 to discuss the latest research analyzing and leveraging this resource. As with previous meetings, we will bring together a wide range of researchers and industry practitioners from many disciplines providing a unique opportunity for sharing ideas and collaboration in this space.”
With various areas of interest, the conference insists on interdisciplinary collaboration. The invited speakers, the data challenge and the list of sponsors makes already the conference remarkably promising.
I noticed presence of Jon Kleinberg and Duncan Watts. We will follow their speeches with the highest attention.
The demo paper we will present is a general introduction about Gephi and open-up about dynamic network studies. We will work hard for presenting thrilling Gephi features and interesting network case studies.
Paper: Gephi : An Open Source Software for Exploring and Manipulating Networks
