  2. 2. Modeling and constructing unstructured overlay networks: Algorithms, techniques and the Smart Grid case

    Author : Georgios Georgiadis; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; matching; smart grid; online computation; scheduling; unstructured overlays; random walks; natural computing; resistor networks; clustering;

    Abstract : Throughout its lifetime, the Internet was always associated with overlay networks; from the WorldWideWeb and peer-to-peer networks to blogs and social networking solutions, overlays built on the Internet infrastructure gave it additional value and made it more engaging to everyday users. Today, rising overlay networks such as the Smart Grid as well as a multitude of sensor, mobile andwireless networks herald a new era of unprecedented connectivity and networking. READ MORE

  3. 3. Multivariate Networks : Visualization and Interaction Techniques

    Author : Ilir Jusufi; Andreas Kerren; Jessie Kennedy; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Information Visualization; Multivariate Networks; Visual Analytics; Exploration; Interaction; Computer Science; Datavetenskap; Information and software visualization; Informations- och programvisualisering;

    Abstract : As more and more data is created each day, researchers from different science domains are trying to make sense of it. A lot of this data, for example our connections to friends on different social networking websites, can be modeled as graphs, where the nodes are actors and the edges are relationships between them.

  4. 4. Towards content distribution in opportunistic networks

    Author : Thabotharan Kathiravelu; Arnold Pears; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Datavetenskap med inriktning mot datorkommunikation; Computer Science with specialization in Computer Communication;

    Abstract : Opportunistic networking is a new communication paradigm. Content Distribution in opportunistic networks is challenging due to intermittent connectivity, short connection durations and a highly dynamic topology. Research is needed to develop new applications and protocols that can distribute content in opportunistic networks. READ MORE

  5. 5. Co-creating democracy : Conceptualizing co-creative media to facilitate democratic engagement in society
