Analysis of Dynamic Social and Technological Networks (Dagstuhl Seminar 11452)

Authors: Vito Latora, Cecilia Mascolo, and Mirco Musolesi

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 1, Issue 11 (2012)


Abstract
With the growing popularity of online communication tools, researchers have turned their attention to the study of the networks arising between users of social networking services, between mobile phone callers and, in general, between individuals connected by technological means. Thanks to the rich set of techniques and methods developed by complex network science, and joining forces with sociologists and psychologists, the analysis of dynamic social and technological networks has sparked many important results, attracting even more interest as the importance of such systems grows over time. This Dagstuhl seminar brought together researchers and practitioners from computer science, physics and psychology, covering the diverse areas of social and technological network analysis. The goal of the seminar was to bring together people from different areas of expertise, focusing on both mathematical aspects and practical applications of theoretical models and techniques. In particular, the evolution of this research field and of its future perspectives was a major theme of the seminar. This seminar was attended by 25 participants.

10403 Abstracts Collection – Impact of Human Mobility on Communications : Measurement, Analysis, Modeling, and Simulation

Authors: Kevin C. Almeroth, Gunnar Karlsson, Cecilia Mascolo, and Jörg Ott

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 10403, Impact of Human Mobility on Communications : Measurement, Analysis, Modeling, and Simulation (2011)


Abstract
From 06.10.2010 to 09.10.2010, the Dagstuhl Seminar 10403 ``Impact of Human Mobility on Communications : Measurement, Analysis, Modeling, and Simulation'' was held in Schloss Dagstuhl~--~Leibniz Center for Informatics. During the seminar, several participants presented their current research, and ongoing work and open problems were discussed. Abstracts of the presentations given during the seminar as well as abstracts of seminar results and ideas are put together in this paper. The first section describes the seminar topics and goals in general. Links to extended abstracts or full papers are provided, if available.

09071 Executive Summary – Delay and Disruption-Tolerant Networking (DTN) II

Authors: Kevin Fall, Cecilia Mascolo, Jörg Ott, and Lars Wolf

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 9071, Delay and Disruption-Tolerant Networking (DTN) II (2009)


Abstract
Today's Internet architecture and protocols, while perfectly suitable for well- connected users, may easily experience serious performance degradation and entirely stop working in more challenged networking environments. These correspondong scenarios all share two commonalities: that an end-to-end path between two communicating nodes may not exist at any single point in time and that communication delay may be significant. With the continued expansion of the Internet into new areas, these environments become commonplace and are no longer restricted to exotic sensing applications but are quickly becoming relevant to consumers in everyday life. Many attempts over recent years of incrementally fixing the Internet protocols in a bottom up fashion have only achieved partial successes, and a more fundamental approach is needed to address networking environments in which delays and disconnections may last for significant periods of time, and are the rule rather than the exception. Delay-tolerant Networking (DTN) has taken a more encompassing approach to dealing with virtually all types of connectivity challenges, from bit rate to errors to delays to disruptions. By providing a novel communication abstraction that relies exclusively on asynchronous hop-by-hop message passing with no need for instant end-to-end connectivity, DTN concepts enable communications even under adverse conditions. This comes, however, at the cost of interactivity of communications, rendering any kind state synchronization or validation more difficult and raising new challenges. These include routing protocols – that need to operate under often unknown future conditions, security mechanisms – that can no longer carry out instant key derivation or validation even if a security infrastructure was in place, and applica- tion protocols and paradigms – that can no longer rely on simple lower layer abstrac- tions promising (mostly) instant and reliable interactions.
