 1st International Workshop on Social Networks and Social Media Mining on the Web
                       in conjunction with DASFAA 2010

Workshop Description:

 Today the emergence of web-based communities and hosted services such as social 
networking sites,  wikis and folksonomies, brings in tremendous freedom of Web 
autonomy and facilitate collaboration  and knowledge sharing between users. Along 
with the interaction between users and computers,  social media are rapidly 
becoming an important part of our digital experience, ranging from digital  
textual information to diverse multimedia forms. These aspects and characteristics 
constitute of  the core of second generation of Web.

 A prominent challenge lies in modeling and mining this vast pool of data to 
extract, represent  and exploit meaningful knowledge and to leverage structures 
and dynamics of emerging social  networks residing in the social media. Social 
networks and social media mining combines data mining  with social computing as a 
promising direction and offers unique opportunities for developing  novel 
algorithms and tools ranging from text and content mining to link mining.

 The 1st International Workshop on Social Networks and Social Media Mining on the 
Web in conjunction  with DASFAA 2010 will bring together the academia, researchers 
and industrial practitioners from  computer science, information systems, 
statistics, sociology, behavior science and organization  science discipline, and 
provide a forum for recent advances in the field of social networks and  social 
media, from the perspectives of data management and mining.

 The topics  of interest include, but are not limited to the following: 
  * Computational models for social media
  * Query languages for social networks and social media
  * Query processing and optimization
  * Influence, trust, and privacy
  * Search in social networks and social media
  * Interoperability among social applications and social media
  * Techniques for social-network and social-media analysis/mining
  * Adversarial blogging and counter measures
  * Link analysis and network structure discovery 
  * Community detection and evolution
  * Blog search and retrieval
  * Group interaction, collaboration, and recommendation 
  * Knowledge discovery (collective wisdom, trend analysis, and topic detection)
  * Social aspects of Blogosphere
  * Human interface and interaction techniques for social media
