The study of social networks originated in social and business communities. In recent years, social network research has advanced significantly; the development of sophisticated techniques for Social Network Analysis and Mining (SNAM) has been highly influenced by the online social Web sites, email logs, phone logs and instant messaging systems, which are widely analyzed using graph theory and machine learning techniques. People perceive the Web increasingly as a social medium that fosters interaction among people, sharing of experiences and knowledge, group activities, community formation and evolution. This has led to a rising prominence of SNAM in academia, politics, homeland security…

Rotor blades represent up to a quarter of the investment in a wind turbine. Improving the performance of the rotor is considered a very promising way to reduce the cost of energy from wind. The race for ever bigger wind turbines, especially for the offshore market, is creating challenging impacts on the development of corresponding rotor blades. Advanced aerodynamic and structural designs, new or optimised materials as well as cost-effective manufacturing technologies are required to advance performance whilst coping with the severe pressure on cost control. First event to set industry benchmarks on blade design, composites and manufacturing processes

The necessity for water utilities to adopt smart metering is as pertinent as ever. Smart meters can cut leakage levels by 20% and reduce energy consumption by a third through associated software and infrastructure. European utilities alone will invest at least $7.8bn in smart water metering by 2020 and the market opportunities for meter manufacturers, installers, data & management organisations is clear. With the bottom line even more pressing in today’s economic climate, the business case remains undiminished. Key benefits of attending: • Appraise regulatory implications of the Water White Paper for UK utility companies • Implement lessons for real-time…
