The IEEE/ACM International Conference on Advances in Social Network Analysis and Mining (ASONAM) provides a premier interdisciplinary forum to bring together researchers and practitioners from all social networking analysis and mining related fields for presentation of original research results, as well as exchange and dissemination of innovative, practical development experiences. ASONAM 2015 seeks to address important challenging problems with a specific focus on the scientific principles, fundamental technology development, and emerging applications associated with social networking analysis and mining.

General areas of interest to ASONAM 2015 include three major aspects:

social and media analysis (e.g., communications, economy, business models, sociology, psychology, anthropology, applied linguistics etc.)
network science (e.g., mathematical models, theory, algorithms, etc.)
technology and applications (e.g., systems, tools, novel applications, crowdsourcing, etc.)

To fully embrace the fast-growing and vigorously dynamic trend of social networks and applications, ASONAM 2015 is eager to consider any breakthroughs in social network analysis and mining in the broadest possible sense.

General areas of interest to ASONAM 2015 include information science and mathematics, communication studies, business and organizational studies, sociology, psychology, anthropology, applied linguistics, biology and medicine.
