SNAMS-2017Social network analysis is concerned with the study of
relationships between social entities. The recent advances in internet
technologies and social media sites, such as Facebook, Twitter and
LinkedIn, have created outstanding opportunities for individuals to
connect, communicate or comment on issues or events of their interests.
Social networks are dynamic and evolving in nature; they also involve a
huge number of users. Frequently, the information related to a certain
concept is distributed among several servers. This brings numerous
challenges to researchers, particularity in the data mining and machine
learning fields. The purpose of this SNAMSSymposium is to provide a forum
for researchers to present and discuss their work which is related to
social network analysis. This Symposium is col-located with the 5th
International Conference on Future Internet of Things and Cloud
(FiCloud-2017), 21-23 August 2017, Prague, Czech Republic.
