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 International Conference on Social Networks
Analysis, Management and Security(SNAMS-2021) is to provide a forum for researchers
to present and discuss their work which is related to social network analysis.
The SNAMS 2021 is col-located with the 8th IEEE International Symposium on
Internet of Things: Systems, Management and Security (IoTSMS).<span></span></span></p>

2021 aims to investigate the opportunities and in all aspects of Social
Networks. In addition, it seeks for novel contributions that help mitigating
SNAMS challenges. That is, the objective of SNAMS 2021 is to provide the
opportunity for students, scientists, engineers, and researchers to discuss and
exchange new ideas, novel results and experience on all aspects of Social
Networks. Researchers are encouraged to submit original research contributions
in all major areas, which include, but not limited to:<span></span></span></p>
