Dear Colleague,
Several people asked for the possibility to present a poster at
BCNetWORKSHOP. While this was not originally planned, we will eventually
organize a poster session. Due to this last minute change, we have
decided to extend the early registration period until next November 1st,
coinciding with the deadline for abstract submissions. People interested
in presenting a poster should send us an abstract through the workshop
website indicating in the title POSTER CONTRIBUTION.
*Important deadlines:*
*Abstract submission and early registration: 1 November 2008*
*Communication of accepted abstracts: 15 November 2008*
*Communication of final program: 1 December 2008*
*Late registration: 1 December 2008*
You can register and find further information at the web-site
http://complex.ffn.ub.es/bcnetworkshop/, which will be
updated and completed as the workshop proceeds.
In commemoration of the tenth anniversary of the celebrated paper by
Watts and Strogatz on small-world
networks, this event will bring together researchers in complex network
science and related areas. Time has come to ask what have been the major
contributions of this emerging field to prospect its future and open
questions in perspective. To this end, internationally recognized
specialists will be invited to explain their current investigations and
to discuss the expected progress of their research within the context of
the field. The workshop will present as well a maximum of twenty
selected contributions compliant with its purpose. An open colloquium
session will also be organized where keynote speakers, participants, and
committee members will have the opportunity to debate all together on
the present situation of complex networks science and its outlook.
We are pleased to announce the following list of keynote speakers:
Jordi Bascompte, Spanish Research Council (CSIC), Spain
Bernd Blasius, University of Oldenburg, Germany
Víctor Eguíluz, IFISC (CSIC-UIB), Spain
Roger Guimerà, Northwestern University, USA
Dmitri Krioukov, CAIDA, University of California San Diego, USA
David Lazer, Harvard University, USA
Adilson E. Motter, Northwestern University, USA
Kim Sneppen, Niels Bohr Institute, Denmark
Duncan Watts, Columbia University, USA
We would be very grateful if you could circulate the conference notice
to your colleagues, post-docs, and Ph.D. students, and encourage them
to submit talks.
We look forward to welcoming you to Barcelona and to BCNetWORKSHOP 2008.
Organizing Committee,
