Comparison of Elementary Dynamic Network Models Using Empirical DataRichard Oliver Legendi
Inspecting dynamics of networks opens up a new dimension in the understanding or mechanisms behind real-world systems. Involving the time factor may help identifying previously hidden (or otherwise hard to recognize) phenomenon and/or patterns compared to static analysis, like individuals periodically changing between groups within a community.
Concentrating on edge dynamics, we defined a set of dynamic network models with various rules (including creating new and relinking edges randomly, by using assortative mixing or preferential attachment strategies) to analyize the evolution of different network properties. Starting from an initial network created by classical network models (like the Erdos-Renyi model) we examined the evolution of basic structural network properties (including density, clustering, average path length, number of components, degree distribution and betweennes centralities). The structure of the snapshot network (i.e., the network that is actually observed in a given instant of time) and the cumulative network (i.e., the network that is constructed by collecting and aggregating several samples of snapshot networks over a period of time) is inherently different, but we also found that certain properties have a strong dependence on the sampling windows length: we made experiments through computer simulations with various aggregation time windows and found that it has a great impact on the results.
In our presentation, we would like to briefly introduce the key findings of our previous results regarding to the elementary dynamic network models, and compare the theoretical results obtained from evaluating different empirical data sets. The selected data sets used for the comparison include political event data compiled from English-language news reports and a dataset created to analyze internet-mediated sexual encounters in Brazil.

We are in an exciting new era of scientific discovery with a greatly expanded range of possibilities due to big data, computation, and crowd participation
These slides present a perspective related to information service integration for pollution awareness evaluation. The proposed methodology is based on indirect information analysis as retrieved from available literature over time. A time series - type analysis highlighting usage of pollution-related terms is employed. The displayed impact of pollution is evaluated based on public awareness, exposed through digitalized available publications. Estimation techniques and tools are also employed in order to evaluate the exact impact of pollution related events on society. The proposed methodology fosters the design of improved environmental monitoring smart services, specifically addressing the development of data processing components in information sub-systems of EISs (Enterprise Information Systems).
Crowdsourcing Approaches for Smart City Open Data ManagementEdward Curry
A wide-scale bottom-up approach to the creation and management of open data has been demonstrated by projects like Freebase, Wikipedia, and DBpedia. This talk explores how to involving a wide community of users in collaborative management of open data activities within a Smart City. The talk discusses how crowdsourcing techniques can be applied within a Smart City context using crowdsourcing and human computation platforms such as Amazon Mechanical Turk, Mobile Works, and Crowd Flower.

Amit Sheth's keynote at IEEE BigData 2014, Oct 29, 2014.
Abstract from:
http://cci.drexel.edu/bigdata/bigdata2014/keynotespeech.htm
Big Data has captured a lot of interest in industry, with the emphasis on the challenges of the four Vs of Big Data: Volume, Variety, Velocity, and Veracity, and their applications to drive value for businesses. Recently, there is rapid growth in situations where a big data challenge relates to making individually relevant decisions. A key example is personalized digital health that related to taking better decisions about our health, fitness, and well-being. Consider for instance, understanding the reasons for and avoiding an asthma attack based on Big Data in the form of personal health signals (e.g., physiological data measured by devices/sensors or Internet of Things around humans, on the humans, and inside/within the humans), public health signals (e.g., information coming from the healthcare system such as hospital admissions), and population health signals (such as Tweets by people related to asthma occurrences and allergens, Web services providing pollen and smog information). However, no individual has the ability to process all these data without the help of appropriate technology, and each human has different set of relevant data!
In this talk, I will describe Smart Data that is realized by extracting value from Big Data, to benefit not just large companies but each individual. If my child is an asthma patient, for all the data relevant to my child with the four V-challenges, what I care about is simply, “How is her current health, and what are the risk of having an asthma attack in her current situation (now and today), especially if that risk has changed?” As I will show, Smart Data that gives such personalized and actionable information will need to utilize metadata, use domain specific knowledge, employ semantics and intelligent processing, and go beyond traditional reliance on ML and NLP. I will motivate the need for a synergistic combination of techniques similar to the close interworking of the top brain and the bottom brain in the cognitive models.
For harnessing volume, I will discuss the concept of Semantic Perception, that is, how to convert massive amounts of data into information, meaning, and insight useful for human decision-making. For dealing with Variety, I will discuss experience in using agreement represented in the form of ontologies, domain models, or vocabularies, to support semantic interoperability and integration. For Velocity, I will discuss somewhat more recent work on Continuous Semantics, which seeks to use dynamically created models of new objects, concepts, and relationships, using them to better understand new cues in the data that capture rapidly evolving events and situations.
Smart Data applications in development at Kno.e.sis come from the domains of personalized health, energy, disaster response, and smart city.

Human-Machine Collaboration in Networked Information SystemsMüller-Birn Claudia
Over the past decade, computers and networks have become increasingly ubiquitous. They have a central role in how we work, communicate, and learn. In this talk, I introduce the concept of human-machine collaboration and show how networked information systems enable coupled relationships between humans and machines. I will take four perspectives on this coupled relationships: how we can design, analyze, develop and also extend them. The presented approaches contribute to the research field of networked socio-technical information systems. By unfolding design parameters of these systems, we can develop adaptive networked information systems that, in the future, can reduce the friction between humans and machines to a point where they become a natural extension of our human experience.

Building a Collaborative Culture: Lessons from Rebuild by DesignCarter Craft
On the 5th anniversary of Superstorm Sandy I made an effort to reflect on public outreach and community engagement practices that are undertaken as part of public infrastructure projects. Following the dramatic flood of 2012, billions of dollars are being spent. Is the public's voice and are public values built-in to the planning and design process? What are some best practices and lessons learned? Thanks to the many friends and collaborators who contributed to this. I truly believe Resiliency can save Democracy. I also worry we believe we cannot have one without the other. Thanks especially to the Netherlands Water Partnership whose invitation to Amsterdam to make this presentation at the International Water Week 2017 was the catalyst.

Introduction Blue Tech Roundtable 10 August 2017Carter Craft
On the occasion of the 2nd International Resource Recovery Conference at Columbia University (5-9 August 2017) the office of the Consulate General of the Netherlands in NYC organized roundtable discussion about "Blue Tech." Participants from the Netherlands, Denmark and New York discussed how water is a central element for life but at the same time peripheral in many ways. Questions posed to the group included: what are the current trends that influence how we view water? As a resource? As a threat? What are the major issues and opportunities now in front of us? What constitutes “Blue Tech?” What drives innovation and adoption of new technology and practices? What examples exist for collaboration amongst organizations to help us all become better and more productive stewards of water? Stay tuned to my LinkedIn and slide share feeds are being updated with the presentations from that day as well as report on the discussion.

The role of water in society and the world economy is significant and it keeps growing. The days when we could assume adequate and continuous supply throughout our lives are gone. Sea Level Rise and climate change have introduced an entire new subspecialty within the worlds of design and construction.

Built in 2011 with 21.5 million cubic meters of sand, the Sandmotor (also called the Sand Engine) is the only part of the Netherlands outside the dikes that is exposed to the tides. In designing this installation, the winds as well as the coastal currents were analyzed extensively. Today, the Sand Motor is an engineering work-in-progress, as well as a publicly-accessible open air scientific and artistic laboratory.
Beginning in 2014, the Dutch non-profit "Satellietgroep" began exploring the Sandmotor as a cultural phenomenon. Satellietgroep has hosted artists in residence for artistic fieldwork, connected with locals and experts to develop new concepts, and produced physical works that reflect the resilience of coexistence of humans and water. Similar to the Percent for Art program in New York City and other places in the US, the Satellietgroep's work at the Sandmotor might be an interesting example for other coastal protection and urban resilience projects in the U.S.

Techniques to optimize the pagerank algorithm usually fall in two categories. One is to try reducing the work per iteration, and the other is to try reducing the number of iterations. These goals are often at odds with one another. Skipping computation on vertices which have already converged has the potential to save iteration time. Skipping in-identical vertices, with the same in-links, helps reduce duplicate computations and thus could help reduce iteration time. Road networks often have chains which can be short-circuited before pagerank computation to improve performance. Final ranks of chain nodes can be easily calculated. This could reduce both the iteration time, and the number of iterations. If a graph has no dangling nodes, pagerank of each strongly connected component can be computed in topological order. This could help reduce the iteration time, no. of iterations, and also enable multi-iteration concurrency in pagerank computation. The combination of all of the above methods is the STICD algorithm. [sticd] For dynamic graphs, unchanged components whose ranks are unaffected can be skipped altogether.
