Introduction
====================
Modern communication networks have been becoming more and more large-scaled and complicated due to rapid development and interconnection among heterogeneous communication networks. Therefore, the management and maintenance of modern communication networks have posed many grand challenges to both industrial and academic communication communities. Especially in very recent years, interpersonal communication has been re-emerging as an important research issue, as people have turned to social networking as a means of communication. Mass media has gradually replaced interpersonal communications a socializing force. Therefore, it is very necessary to find new levels of autonomy and intelligence in designing, deploying, managing, and maintaining communication networks. Meanwhile, analysis of communities, personalization for social activities, and social network modeling, construction of scalable, customizable social network infrastructure have brought researchers new challenges.
The purpose of the 2012 International Workshop on Intelligent Communication and Social Networks (IntelNet 2012) is to bring together scientists, researchers, professionals, and practitioners from both industry and academia to exchange ideas, discuss solutions, share experiences, and report state-of-the-art research results on various aspects of intelligence communication and social networks.
