  • An Introduction
    This chapter is from Social Media Mining: An Introduction. By Reza Zafarani, Mohammad Ali Abbasi, and Huan Liu. Cambridge University Press, 2014. Draft version: April 20, 2014. Complete Draft and Slides Available at: http://dmml.asu.edu/smm Chapter 10 Behavior Analytics What motivates individuals to join an online group? When individuals abandon social media sites, where do they migrate to? Can we predict box office revenues for movies from tweets posted by individuals? These questions are a few of many whose answers require us to analyze or predict behaviors on social media. Individuals exhibit different behaviors in social media: as individuals or as part of a broader collective behavior. When discussing individual be- havior, our focus is on one individual. Collective behavior emerges when a population of individuals behave in a similar way with or without coordi- nation or planning. In this chapter we provide examples of individual and collective be- haviors and elaborate techniques used to analyze, model, and predict these behaviors. 10.1 Individual Behavior We read online news; comment on posts, blogs, and videos; write reviews for products; post; like; share; tweet; rate; recommend; listen to music; and watch videos, among many other daily behaviors that we exhibit on social media. What are the types of individual behavior that leave a trace on social media? We can generally categorize individual online behavior into three cate- gories (shown in Figure 10.1): 319 Figure 10.1: Individual Behavior. 1. User-User Behavior. This is the behavior individuals exhibit with re- spect to other individuals. For instance, when befriending someone, sending a message to another individual, playing games, following, inviting, blocking, subscribing, or chatting, we are demonstrating a user-user behavior.

On the one hand, such knowledge allows service providers to adjust their services according to the dynamic network conditions. On the other hand, as many systems are flexible in choosing their communication paths and targets, knowing network performance enables to optimize services by e.g. intelligent path selection. In the networking field, end-to-end network performance refers to some property of a network path measured by various metrics such as round-trip time (RTT), available bandwidth (ABW) and packet loss rate (PLR). While much progress has been made in network measurement, a main challenge in the acquisition of network performance on large-scale networks is the quadratical growth of the measurement overheads with respect to the number of network nodes, which ren- ders the active probing of all paths infeasible. Thus, a natural idea is to measure a small set of paths and then predict the others where there are no direct measurements. This understanding has motivated numerous research on approaches to network performance prediction.

Network-on-Chip (NoC) Memory has emerged as a potential solution to provide a flexible and scalable Core 0 interconnect in a planar platform. In the mean time, three-dimensional TSVs (3D) integration technology pushes circuit design beyond Moore’s law and provides short vertical connections between different layers. As a result, the innovative solution that combines 3D integrations and NoC designs can further enhance the system performance. However, due Core 0 Core 1 to the unpredictable workload characteristics, NoC may suffer from intermittent congestions and channel overflows, especially when the (a) (b) network bandwidth is limited by the area and energy budget.

  • A Social Network Matrix for Implicit and Explicit Social Network Plates
    A Social Network Matrix for Implicit and Explicit Social Network Plates Wei Zhou1;4, Wenjing Duan2, Selwyn Piramuthu3;4 1Information & Operations Management, ESCP Europe, Paris, France 2Information Systems and Technology Management, George Washington University, U.S.A. 3Information Systems and Operations Management, University of Florida, U.S.A. Gainesville, Florida 32611-7169, USA 4RFID European Lab, Paris, France. [email protected], [email protected], selwyn@ufl.edu Abstract A majority of social network research deals with explicitly formed social networks. Although only rarely acknowledged for its existence, we believe that implicit social networks play a significant role in the overall dynamics of social networks. We propose a framework to evalu- ate the dynamics and characteristics of a set of explicit and associated implicit social networks. Specifically, we propose a social network ma- trix to measure the implicit relationships among the entities in various social networks. We also derive several indicators to characterize the dynamics in online social networks. We proceed by incorporating im- plicit social networks in a traditional network flow context to evaluate key network performance indicators such as the lowest communication cost, maximum information flow, and the budgetary constraints. Keywords: Implicit Social Network, Online Social Network 1 1 Introduction In recent years, several online social network platforms have witnessed huge public attention from social and financial perspectives. However, there are different facets to this interest. Facebook, for example, has gained a large set of users but failed to excel on profitability. Online social networks can be broadly classified as explicit and implicit social networks. Explicit social networks (e.g., Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and MySpace) are where the users define the network by explicitly connect- ing with other users, possibly, but not necessarily, based on shared interests.

  • A Framework for a Bandwidth Based Network Performance Model for CS Students
    A Framework for a Bandwidth Based Network Performance Model for CS Students D. Veal, G. Kohli, S. P. Maj J. Cooper Edith Cowan University Curtin University of Technology Western Australia Western Australia [email protected] Abstract There are currently various methods by which network and internetwork performance can be addressed. Examples include simulation modeling and analytical modeling which often results in models that are highly complex and often mathematically based (e.g. queuing theory). The authors have developed a new model which is based upon simple formulae derived from an investigation of computer networks. This model provides a conceptual framework for performance analysis based upon bandwidth considerations from a constructivist perspective. The bandwidth centric model uses high level abstraction decoupled from the implementation details of the underlying technology. This paper represents an initial attempt to develop this theory further in the field of networking education and presents a description of some of our work to date. This paper also includes details of experiments undertaken to measure bandwidth and formulae derived and applied to the investigation of converging data streams. Introduction There are many ways of approaching computer networking education. Davies notes that: “Network courses are often based on one or more of the following areas: The OSI model; Performance analysis; and Network simulation” 1. The OSI model is a popular approach that is used extensively in the Cisco Networking Academy Program (CNAP) 2 and in other Cisco learning materials. With respect to simulation Davis describes the Optimized Network Engineering Tools (OPNET) system that that can model networks and sub-networks, individual nodes and stations and state transition models that defines a node 1.

  • Network Information Theory
    Network Information Theory This comprehensive treatment of network information theory and its applications pro- vides the first unified coverage of both classical and recent results. With an approach that balances the introduction of new models and new coding techniques, readers are guided through Shannon’s point-to-point information theory, single-hop networks, multihop networks, and extensions to distributed computing, secrecy, wireless communication, and networking. Elementary mathematical tools and techniques are used throughout, requiring only basic knowledge of probability, whilst unified proofs of coding theorems are based on a few simple lemmas, making the text accessible to newcomers. Key topics covered include successive cancellation and superposition coding, MIMO wireless com- munication, network coding, and cooperative relaying. Also covered are feedback and interactive communication, capacity approximations and scaling laws, and asynchronous and random access channels. This book is ideal for use in the classroom, for self-study, and as a reference for researchers and engineers in industry and academia.
