Architectural Styles and the Design of Network-based Software Architectures
, 2000
"...
The World Wide Web has succeeded in large part because its software architecture has been designed to meet the needs of an Internet-scale distributed hypermedia system. The Web has been iteratively developed over the past ten years through a series of modifications to the standards that define its ..."

De-anonymizing social networks
, 2009
"... Operators of online social networks are increasingly sharing potentially sensitive information about users and their relationships with advertisers, application developers, and data-mining researchers. Privacy is typically protected by anonymization, i.e., removing names, addresses, etc. We present ..."

Characterizing Residential Broadband Networks
- Proc. of ACM IMC
, 2007
"... A large and rapidly growing proportion of users connect to the Internet via residential broadband networks such as Digital Subscriber Lines (DSL) and cable. Residential networks are often the bottleneck in the last mile of today’s Internet. Their characteristics critically affect Internet applicatio ..."

However, to date, few studies have investigated commercial broadband deployments, and rigorous measurement data that characterize these networks at scale are lacking. In this paper, we present the first
Modeling relationship strength in online social networks.
- In Proc. WWW
, 2010
"... ABSTRACT Previous work analyzing social networks has mainly focused on binary friendship relations. However, in online social networks the low cost of link formation can lead to networks with heterogeneous relationship strengths (e.g., acquaintances and best friends mixed together). In this case, t ..."

Neighborhood-Based Models for Social Networks
- Sociological Methodology
, 2002
"... Harrison White and several anonymous reviewers for valuable comments on the work. We argue that social networks can be modeled as the outcome of processes that occur in overlapping local regions of the network, termed local social neighborhoods. Each neighborhood is conceived as a possible site of i ..."

In this paper, we discuss hypotheses about the form of these neighborhoods, and we present two new and theoretically plausible ways in which neighborhood-based models for networks can be constructed. In the first, we introduce the notion of a
Unveiling Facebook: A Measurement Study of Social Network Based Applications

Differences in the Mechanics of Information Diffusion Across Topics: Idioms, Political Hashtags, and Complex Contagion on Twitter. WWW
, 2011
"... ABSTRACT There is a widespread intuitive sense that different kinds of information spread differently on-line, but it has been difficult to evaluate this question quantitatively since it requires a setting where many different kinds of information spread in a shared environment. Here we study this ..."

We develop simulation-based and generative models to analyze how the adoption dynamics interact with the network structure
