NY NetSci conference

Phil Henshaw-2
re: http://www.nd.edu/~netsci/conference.html 
 
I didn't have any idea what I would find, and it's impressive.   Network
node science seems to be developing as a comprehensive interdisciplinary
research and visualization method for networks (i.e. both observed and
theoretical systems of all kinds).   Of course, not the least part for
me is that virtually anything you can diagram as a network of nodes with
relations, is an aspect of a real world system that developed by growth
and maturation processes that are even harder to diagram, but a great
source of questions for what one might represent as the nodes and
connections....   There are a couple Santa Fe people there too, Aaron
Clauset, Jennifer Dunne.  
 
Day one had lots of interest, especially since I knew almost nothing
about this little developing branch of systems theory.   The best
offering I think was an open source network property visualization
software that includes timeline feature so you can better see how the
relationships between clusters evolve.   I'm sure it has limitations,
but a real nice contribution.   http://www.cs.umd.edu/hcil/socialaction/
