====================================================================

Recently, social networks have grown rapidly in size and popularity. 
The global internet population has witnessed a popular expansion to 
reach billions of users around the world.  For connected users, 
social networks provide a most suitable space for sharing data, 
interacting with other users and forming communities with 
common interests. 
Social networks have important impacts on today's society not only 
in terms of structure and dynamics, but also regarding scientific 
and technological aspects. Social networks raise new research 
challenges due to the numerous emerging needs and applications.  
The focus of this track is on emerging and novel concepts, 
architectures and methodologies for social and more generally 
large networks analysis, tools and applications, including issues 
related to complex graphs, semantics, big data, and security.

The topics of interest for this track include, but are not limited to:
