NetSE: Large: Collaborative Research:Contagion in Large Socio-Communication Networks

简单的传染过程是复杂网络上各种现象的基础，例如疾病在社会接触网络和通信网络中的传播;了解它们的动态和发展控制机制是许多应用中的关键问题。该建议的目标是：㈠开发利用部分和噪声数据构建综合关系网络的方法; ㈡了解这些网络的结构和传染过程，特别是重要的网络特性和影响传染动态的典型模式; ㈢开发各种技术，以控制传染过程的蔓延，并发现、预防和制止相互关联的社会技术网络的连锁故障;以及（iv）理解网络和动态之间的共同进化，并利用这一点来完善它们的模型以及控制它们的策略。

Simple contagion processes underlie various phenomena on complex networks, such as the spread of diseases on social-contact networks and information in communication networks; understanding their dynamics and developing control mechanisms are key issues in numerous applications. The goals of this proposal are: (i) Developing methods to construct synthetic relational networks using partial and noisy data; (ii) Understanding the structure of these networks and the contagion processes, and especially important network properties and typical patterns that have an impact on the dynamics of contagion; (iii) Developing techniques to control the spread of contagion processes, and to detect, prevent and arrest cascading failures in coupled socio-technical networks; and (iv) Understanding the co-evolution between the networks and dynamics, and using this to refine their models, and the strategies to control them.
