  • What Metrics Really Mean, a Question of Causality and Construction in Leveraging Social Media Audiences Into Business Results: Cases from the UK Film Industry
    . Volume 10, Issue 2 November 2013 What metrics really mean, a question of causality and construction in leveraging social media audiences into business results: Cases from the UK film industry Michael Franklin, University of St Andrews, UK Summary: Digital distribution and sustained audience engagement potentially offer filmmakers new business models for responding to decreasing revenues from DVD and TV rights. Key to campaigns that aim at enrolling audiences, mitigating demand uncertainty and improving revenues, is the management of digital media metrics. This process crucially involves the interpretation of figures where a causal gap exists between some digital activity and a market transaction. This paper charts the conceptual framing methods and calculations of value necessary to manipulating and utilising the audience in a new way. The invisible aspects and mediating role of contemporary creative industries audiences is presented through empirical case study evidence from two UK feature films. Practitioners’ understanding of digital engagement metrics is shown to be a social construction involving the agency of material artefacts as powerful elements of networks that include both market entities and audiences. Keywords: Film Business; Social Media; Market Device; Valuation; Digital Engagement Introduction The affordances of digital technology for audience engagement and more direct, or dis- intermediated distribution, prompt a reappraisal of the role of audiences in the film industry. Through digital tools, most significantly through social media, audiences are made material. Audiences are interacted with, engaged, marketed to, and financially exploited often visible all their social network connections, but they are also aggregated, manipulated and exert an agency that is much less visible and plays out off-screen.

Email: [email protected] Edited by: Ernesto Estrada [Received on 16 October 2013; accepted on 23 April 2014] In most natural and engineered systems, a set of entities interact with each other in complicated patterns that can encompass multiple types of relationships, change in time and include other types of complications. Such systems include multiple subsystems and layers of connectivity, and it is important to take such ‘multilayer’ features into account to try to improve our understanding of complex systems. Consequently, it is necessary to generalize ‘traditional’ network theory by developing (and validating) a framework and associated tools to study multilayer systems in a comprehensive fashion.

  • Multidimensional Network Analysis
    Universita` degli Studi di Pisa Dipartimento di Informatica Dottorato di Ricerca in Informatica Ph.D. Thesis Multidimensional Network Analysis Michele Coscia Supervisor Supervisor Fosca Giannotti Dino Pedreschi May 9, 2012 Abstract This thesis is focused on the study of multidimensional networks. A multidimensional network is a network in which among the nodes there may be multiple different qualitative and quantitative relations. Traditionally, complex network analysis has focused on networks with only one kind of relation. Even with this constraint, monodimensional networks posed many analytic challenges, being representations of ubiquitous complex systems in nature. However, it is a matter of common experience that the constraint of considering only one single relation at a time limits the set of real world phenomena that can be represented with complex networks. When multiple different relations act at the same time, traditional complex network analysis cannot provide suitable an- alytic tools. To provide the suitable tools for this scenario is exactly the aim of this thesis: the creation and study of a Multidimensional Network Analysis, to extend the toolbox of complex network analysis and grasp the complexity of real world phenomena. The urgency and need for a multidimensional network analysis is here presented, along with an empirical proof of the ubiquity of this multifaceted reality in different complex networks, and some related works that in the last two years were proposed in this novel setting, yet to be systematically defined. Then, we tackle the foundations of the multidimensional setting at different levels, both by looking at the basic exten- sions of the known model and by developing novel algorithms and frameworks for well-understood and useful problems, such as community discovery (our main case study), temporal analysis, link prediction and more.

Most functioning networks are completely connected, but when they experience failure, finite components—little islands of nodes— become disconnected from the giant component. A common functionality rule states that nodes in these finite components have insufficient support to remain active. Thus in addition to the nodes rendered inactive by failure, the exacerbation factor renders inactive all nodes not connected to the giant component. If network X has a degree distribution PX (k) and a fraction 1 − yX of nodes is randomly removed, the X X X exacerbation factor gX is gX (yX ) = 1 − G0 [1 − yX (1 − f¥ )], where f¥ is the probability that the branches X X X do not expand to infinity, and it satisfies the recurrent equation f¥ = G1 [1 − yX (1 − f¥ )].

  • Percolation in Real Interdependent Networks
    ARTICLES PUBLISHED ONLINE: 15 JUNE 2015 | DOI: 10.1038/NPHYS3374 Percolation in real interdependent networks Filippo Radicchi The function of a real network depends not only on the reliability of its own components, but is aected also by the simultaneous operation of other real networks coupled with it. Whereas theoretical methods of direct applicability to real isolated networks exist, the frameworks developed so far in percolation theory for interdependent network layers are of little help in practical contexts, as they are suited only for special models in the limit of infinite size. Here, we introduce a set of heuristic equations that takes as inputs the adjacency matrices of the layers to draw the entire phase diagram for the interconnected network. We demonstrate that percolation transitions in interdependent networks can be understood by decomposing these systems into uncoupled graphs: the intersection among the layers, and the remainders of the layers. When the intersection dominates the remainders, an interconnected network undergoes a smooth percolation transition. Conversely, if the intersection is dominated by the contribution of the remainders, the transition becomes abrupt even in small networks. We provide examples of real systems that have developed interdependent networks sharing cores of ‘high quality’ edges to prevent catastrophic failures. ercolation is among the most studied topics in statistical largest cluster of mutually connected nodes16. A cluster of mutually physics1. The model used to mimic percolation processes connected nodes is a set of vertices with the property that every node Passumes the existence of an underlying network of arbitrary in the cluster has at least one neighbour belonging to that cluster in structure.

  • Impact of Degree Heterogeneity on Attack Vulnerability
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Impact of Degree Heterogeneity on Attack Vulnerability of Interdependent Networks Received: 30 January 2016 Shiwen Sun1,2, Yafang Wu1,2, Yilin Ma1,2, Li Wang1,2, Zhongke Gao3 & Chengyi Xia1,2 Accepted: 15 August 2016 The study of interdependent networks has become a new research focus in recent years. We focus on Published: 09 September 2016 one fundamental property of interdependent networks: vulnerability. Previous studies mainly focused on the impact of topological properties upon interdependent networks under random attacks, the effect of degree heterogeneity on structural vulnerability of interdependent networks under intentional attacks, however, is still unexplored. In order to deeply understand the role of degree distribution and in particular degree heterogeneity, we construct an interdependent system model which consists of two networks whose extent of degree heterogeneity can be controlled simultaneously by a tuning parameter. Meanwhile, a new quantity, which can better measure the performance of interdependent networks after attack, is proposed. Numerical simulation results demonstrate that degree heterogeneity can significantly increase the vulnerability of both single and interdependent networks. Moreover, it is found that interdependent links between two networks make the entire system much more fragile to attacks. Enhancing coupling strength between networks can greatly increase the fragility of both networks against targeted attacks, which is most evident under the case of max-max assortative coupling. Current results can help to deepen the understanding of structural complexity of complex real-world systems. Complex network is an important tool used to describe and analyze the structure and dynamical behaviors of complex systems1–3. Since real-world complex systems are becoming increasingly dependent on one another, the study of interdependent networks has become another new active topic in network science4,5.

  • Cascading Failures in Interdependent Networks with Multiple
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Cascading Failures in Interdependent Networks with Multiple Supply-Demand Links and Received: 2 August 2017 Accepted: 3 October 2017 Functionality Thresholds Published: xx xx xxxx M. A. Di Muro1, L. D. Valdez2,3, H. H. Aragão Rêgo4, S. V. Buldyrev5, H. E. Stanley6 & L. A. Braunstein1,6 Various social, financial, biological and technological systems can be modeled by interdependent networks. It has been assumed that in order to remain functional, nodes in one network must receive the support from nodes belonging to different networks. So far these models have been limited to the case in which the failure propagates across networks only if the nodes lose all their supply nodes. In this paper we develop a more realistic model for two interdependent networks in which each node has its own supply threshold, i.e., they need the support of a minimum number of supply nodes to remain functional. In addition, we analyze different conditions of internal node failure due to disconnection from nodes within its own network. We show that several local internal failure conditions lead to similar nontrivial results. When there are no internal failures the model is equivalent to a bipartite system, which can be useful to model a financial market. We explore the rich behaviors of these models that include discontinuous and continuous phase transitions. Using the generating functions formalism, we analytically solve all the models in the limit of infinitely large networks and find an excellent agreement with the stochastic simulations. Studying complex systems includes analyzing how the different components of a given system interact with each other and how this interaction affects the system’s global collective behavior.
