The use of contextually aware, pervasive, distributed computing, and sensor networks to bridge the gap between the physical and online worlds is the basis of mobile social networking. This book shows how applications can be built to provide mobile social networking, the research issues that need to be solved to enable this vision, and how mobile social networking can be used to provide computational intelligence that will improve daily life. With contributions from the fields of sociology, computer science, human-computer interaction and design, this book demonstrates how mobile social networks can be inferred from users' physical interactions both with the environment and with others, as well as how users behave around them and how their behavior differs on mobile vs. traditional online social networks.

Christoph Trattner

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed joint post-workshop proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Mining Ubiquitous and Social Environments, MUSE 2013, held in Prague, Czech Republic, in September 2013, and the 4th International Workshop on Modeling Social Media, MSM 2013, held in Paris, France, in May 2013. The 8 full papers included in the book are revised and significantly extended versions of papers submitted to the workshops. The focus is on collective intelligence in ubiquitous and social environments. Issues tackled include personalization in social streams, recommendations exploiting social and ubiquitous data, and efficient information processing in social systems. Furthermore, this book presents work dealing with the problem of mining patterns from ubiquitous social data, including mobility mining and exploratory methods for ubiquitous data analysis.

Mining, Modeling, and Recommending 'Things' in Social Media

This book constitutes the joint thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of The Modeling Social Media Workshop, MSM 2010 held in Toronto, Canada in June 2010 and the International Workshop on Mining Ubiquitous and Social Environments, MUSE 2010, held in Barcelona, Spain in September 2010. The eight revised full papers included were carefully reviewed and selected after two rounds of reviewing and revision. The papers address various aspects of the analysis and engineering of socio-computational systems in which social, ubiquitous and computational processes are interdependent and tightly interwoven
