Funded Activity Summary

Virtual Observatory for the Study of Online Networks (VOSON). This project is the first stage in establishing the Virtual Observatory for the Study of Online Networks (VOSON) - a Grid-enabled research environment facilitating innovative and collaborative research into the impact of social and political networks on the Internet. In addition to the development of prototype Grid-enabled software that will 'power' VOSON, we will establish international linkages with leading researchers in the UK and the US who will contribute to software testing and development via a collaborative demonstrator research project. By establishing VOSON 'nodes' at key international research institutions, Australia will take a leading international role in a major e-Social Science research endeavour.
