concept to become real, and to be a tool to connect people worldwide in ways
that were previously impossible. The Internet’s first generation (Web 1.0)
consisted of static pages instead of dynamic HTML, and the presented content to
the user is served from a server's file system instead of a Relational Database
Management System (RDBMS). The second generation (Web 2.0) encouraged users to
share information and interact and collaborate with each other by posting their
user-generated contents in virtual communities. The development of Web 2.0
allowed many new social networking sites to flourish such as Facebook, Twitter,
LinkedIn, Pinterest, Google Plus+, Tumblr, Instagram, VK, Flickr, Vine, and
many others. Such Online Social Networks (OSN) provide a wealth of raw data
that is invaluable to governments, companies, universities, etc. The large
scale of such networks presents a challenge to providers just to keep them
running smoothly. It also presents a challenge to researchers wanting to
analyze the data collected from such networks. These challenges contributed to
the rise of important of important fields such as big data. The objective of
this workshop is to provide general guidelines on the current and future trends
in online social network technologies. Authors are encouraged to submit their
original work, which is not submitted elsewhere, to this workshop. <br>
<br>
Proceedings of the workshops will be published by the IEEE Conference
Publishing Services (CPS) and will be submitted for inclusion in the
IEEE-Xplore and the IEEE Computer Society (CSDL) digital libraries. Authors are
encouraged to submit their original work, which is not submitted elsewhere, to
this workshop. The topics of the workshop include but not limited to: <br>
<br>
* Social network analysis (SNA) <br>
* Online Social Networks Mining <br>
