Research Dissemination through Organizing Workshops

PI和Co-PI建议组织两个研讨会的联合会议：网络图算法和模型研讨会（WAW 2007）和互联网&网络经济学研讨会（WINE 2007）在圣地亚哥2007年12月11日至14日。WINE的主题集中在算法博弈论，包括计算复杂性的各个方面和应用，如拍卖，定价，合作、竞争、安全和其他与互联网相关的经济问题。在过去的三年里，人们对纳什均衡和大规模经济博弈的计算复杂性的理解有了很大的发展。WINE研讨会在这方面发挥了至关重要的作用，并推动了算法博弈论和许多应用的发展。WAW专注于网络图和相关大型复杂社交网络的动态数学建模和分析，以及在去聚类，信息检索和数据挖掘中的算法应用。WAW系列研讨会促进了网络新科学的图论和算法方面的快速发展。

The PI and Co-PIs propose to organize a joint conference of two Workshops: theWorkshop on Algorithms and Models for the Web-Graph (WAW 2007) and the Workshop on Internet & Network Economics (WINE 2007) at San Diego December 11-14, 2007.The main theme of WINE focuses on the algorithmic game theory including various aspects of computational complexity and applications such as auctions, pricing, collaboration, competition, security and other Internet related economical issues in general. In the past three years, there has been a great deal of development in understanding the computational complexity of Nash equilibrium and large scale economical games. WINE workshops have played a vital role in this and have been an impetus to the developments of algorithmic game theory and numerous applications.WAW focuses on mathematical modeling and analysis of the dynamics of the webgraph and related large complex social networks as well as algorithmic applications in declustering, information retrieval and data mining. The series of WAW workshops have contributed to the rapid developments on the graph-theoretical and algorithmic aspects of the new science of networks.
