ABSTRACT
Many techniques for the modeling, analysis and optimization of Web related datasets are based on studies of large scale networks, where a network can contain hundreds of millions of nodes and billions of edges. Network analysis tools must provide not only extensive functionality, but also high performance in processing these large networks. The tutorial will present Stanford Network Analysis Platform (SNAP), a general purpose, high performance system for analysis and manipulation of large networks. SNAP is being used widely in studies of the Web datasets. SNAP consists of open source software, which provides a rich set of functions for performing network analytics, and a popular repository of publicly available real world network datasets. SNAP software APIs are available in Python and C++.
The tutorial will cover all aspects of SNAP, including APIs and datasets. The tutorial will include a hands-on component, where the participants will have the opportunity to use SNAP on their computers.

Large networks are becoming a widely used abstraction for studying complex systems in a broad set of disciplines, ranging from social-network analysis to molecular biology and neuroscience. Despite an increasing need to analyze and manipulate large ...
Dynamic Network Analytics: Tutorial Outline
MobiCom '18: Proceedings of the 24th Annual International Conference on Mobile Computing and NetworkingNetwork analytics are widely used in many fields. Increasingly though, the networks of interest are high dimensional. Rather than just focusing on the traditional who is interaction with whom networks, modern network analysis examines the who, what, ...
