RCIS goal is to bring together scientists, researchers, engineers and practitioners from a wide range of information science fields and provide opportunities for knowledge sharing and dissemination. At RCIS’2014, among other regular topics a special attention will be given to Social Network Analysis (SNA). SNA has gained a significant impact in various fields of information science since social links between agents appear to be much effective to explain individual and global phenomena in multiple domains like biology, politics or business. It addresses both theoretical and practical issues using graph theory and data mining techniques. The impact of SNA has been recognized also in the Information Systems community. Providing support for network analysis, such as tracing, propagation, visualization, simulation, etc., new IT capabilities account also for the network existence as such, in terms of its creation, maintenance and visibility.

Besides the works on social network analysis and its application in the field of Information Science, RCIS welcomes submissions from any domain of Information Science. The list of interested topics includes, but is not limited to:

Social Network Modeling and Simulation
