The aim of BASNA 2012 is to encourage
multidisciplinary discussions related to
novel ideas and applications geared
towards analyzing social network data
for business use. By bringing together
researchers in the fields of SNA, data
mining, and management studies, the
workshop will focus on identifying areas
of collaboration among their respective
disciplines:
The role of data mining techniques in
identifying scalable methods for the
extraction and organization of social
relations for management research and
business practice
The role of management research in
guiding data mining efforts and SNA
metrics development towards
theoretically-grounded discoveries about
social network emergence.
The role of Social Network Analysis in
developing and applying metrics and
tools for the mapping, evaluation,
visualization, and design of social
relations in organizations.
Selected authors will be invited to
submit an extended version of their
paper, with a fast reviewing process, to
the Journal of Information Science and
Technology , to the International
Journal of Knowledge-Based
Organizations, and to the International
Journal of Social Network Mining
