Call for Papers:

The ubiquity of Internet, web, cloud and mobile technologies are the 
main driving forces behind the success and popularity of online social 
networks, which represent interactions and linkages among friends, 
families, colleagues, businesses, and organizations. Billions of users 
across the globe are using various social networks for various purposes. 
Social networks are characterised by complex network structures and 
architectural designs. They give rise to research challenges in 
different application areas such as social setup, businesses, commerce, 
education, healthcare, public sector and governmental organizations. 
This has opened up opportunities for interdisciplinary research that

science, statistics, mathematics, social science, medical sciences, 
business and finance.
