Social Network Analysis: Methods and Applications
TLDR
This paper presents mathematical representation of social networks in the social and behavioral sciences through the lens of Dyadic and Triadic Interaction Models, which describes the relationships between actor and group measures and the structure of networks.Abstract:

Application of Graph Sparsification in Developing Parallel Algorithms for Updating Connected Components
TL;DR: The results show that the updating is scalable (10X on 16 processors for larger networks) and to the best of the knowledge this is the first parallel implementation of graph sparsification.

Knowledge sharing in inter-organisational teams: the role of the advice network and the substitutive role of the formal network in an R&D alliance
TL;DR: Innovation is about individuals collaborating to share existing knowledge and create new knowledge as discussed by the authors. Increasingly these collaborations cross organisational boundaries, like in R&D alliances, and many of...

Leadership networks in Catholic parishes: Implications for implementation research in health
TL;DR: This study explores the implications of leader-centered versus distributed leadership in Catholic parishes for the implementation of evidence-based health interventions in Massachusetts and identified key actors in the network structures at each parish.

Identifying Modules in Complex Networks by a Graph-Theoretical Method and Its Application in Protein Interaction Networks
TL;DR: A method based on graph-theoretical clustering for identifying modularity structure in complex networks based on minimum spanning tree that has computational compexity of polynomial-time with low order and can be used to deal with large-scale networks.
