Purpose This paper examines the role of local market-based communities in driving regional revitalization, using detailed analysis of online networks. We aim to dissect a local community's communication network, highlighting members with high engagement levels and exploring their characteristics. Our goal is to identify the conditions that allow local community networks to grow independently and to demonstrate how the activation of these networks contributes to regional revitalization. Design/methodology/approach We employ a mixed-methods approach, combining social network analysis with statistical techniques to investigate the structure of online communication networks. Specifically, we use ANOVA to determine the statistical significance of our findings, ensuring their reliability. To complement our quantitative data, we include qualitative insights from interviews, adding depth and context to our analysis. Findings Our results show that individuals with high centrality in the online network are crucial for maintaining active local communities. We find that leveraging local resources to create a supportive and adaptable environment is essential for the communities' sustainability and expansion. Importantly, our research draws a direct connection between the vitality of local community networks and the broader process of regional revitalization. We argue that energizing local communities is an effective way to address the risk of regional decline. By integrating quantitative analysis with qualitative feedback, this study contributes to the understanding of local market-based communities as key drivers of regional development. It emphasizes the importance of building vibrant, resourceful community networks to revitalize areas experiencing socio-economic challenges.

In this exploratory analysis, we investigate the genesis and the evolution of local food-purchasing networks created and operated by consumers. In details, we describe how collecting and sharing information about food-products can become a central activity for some consumers' communities and how these communities are starting to play an active role in the food supply chain. We define this community-based food-purchasing model as collaborative food network (CFN), and we analytically describe its characteristics and differences with respect to the traditional and industrialized agrifood supply chain models. A collaborative food network community in Italy, known as GAS ("Gruppi di Acquisto Solidale" - "Solidarity Purchasing Groups"), is introduced as an example of our analytical model. We will use this empirical example to present the strengths and weaknesses of the CFN model.

In this paper, we tried to investigate whether the influence of 'I' in a heterogeneous network of physical network and virtual network can be quantitatively measurable. To do this, we used Networked Community(NC) methodology to devise a concrete model of influence assessment in heterogeneous network. In order to test the model, we conducted an experiment with Donald J. Trump and his surroundings to evaluate the effectiveness of this influence assessment model. Experimentation included the measurement of impacts on the physical and virtual networks, and the impact on the networked community. Using Trump's case, we found that analyzing only one of the two networks can not accurately analyze the impact on others.

A community of the social network refers to the subset of nodes linked more densely among them than to others. In this study, we propose a Monte-Carlo method for generating random social unipartite and bipartite networks with two or more communities. Proposed random networks can be used to verify the small world phenomenon of the social networks with several communities.

As the community antenna television (CATV) networks becomes ubiquitous, instead of constructing an entirely new broadband network infrastructure, it has emerged as one of the rapid and economic technologies to interconnecting heterogeneous network to provide broadband access to subscribers. How to support ubiquitous real-time multimedia applications, especially in a heavy traffic environment, becomes a critical issue in modern CATV networks. In this paper, we propose a time guaranteed and efficient upstream minislots allocation algorithm for supporting quality-of-service (QoS) traffic over data over cable service interface specification (DOCSIS) CATV networks to fulfill the needs of realtime interactive services, such as video telephony, video on demand (VOD), distance learning, and so on. The proposed adaptive fast expansion algorithm and the loading statistics with dynamic swapping algorithm have been shown to perform better than that of the multimedia cable network system (MCNS) DOCSIS.

The community consciousness used to be the core of the social capital in rural Korea, and there used to be a long tradition of mutual trust and cooperation in rural village community in Korea. However, recent trends in rapid urbanization or de-ruralization may affected community consciousness and social capital in rural society in Korea. The social capital has been existed in terms of mutual trust, commonly shared norms, and cooperative behavior in farm work and daily life of rural people. Commonly shared norms and networks have accelerated social effectiveness and promoted cooperative work as well as moral and spiritual aspects of rural society. Social capital in terms of community consciousness, participation of village work, visit and invitation of the neighborhood, and participation in various village group and networks were suveyed in JanggogRi, Jori Myun, Paju city, Gyeonggi province. The data collected from 65 persons, and the major findings of the study were as follow; The respondents responded that the community consciousness of de-rural area decreased in general with a few exception in the groups of alumni, family, religion and voluntary society. Social capital in terms of participation of village work, visiting the neighbors and voting increased slightly. Further research on social capital should be conducted to strengthen community consciousness, and various measures to increase the social capital should be adopted for livable community development.

소셜 네트워크나 바이오 네트워크는 인터랙션이 가능한 오브젝트들이 관계를 맺음으로써 형성되는 복잡 네트워크이다. 실세계에 존재하는 복잡 네트워크는 커뮤니티 구조로 구성되어 있으며, 이 커뮤니티 구조를 자동으로 발견하는 것은 그 네트워크를 제어하고 이해하는데 있어서 중요한 기술이다. 하지만 이런 네트워크들은 시간에 따라 오브젝트들의 인터랙션에 의해 그 네트워크의 구조와 위상이 불특정하게 변화한다. 이런 동적 네트워크에서 노드들 간에 인터랙션을 기반으로 한 커뮤니티 구조를 발견하는 것은 높은 시간 복잡도 연산이 요구되며, 반복된 계산을 비효율적으로 처리하는 문제점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 동적 네트워크에서 인터랙션 기반 커뮤니티 구조를 점진적으로 발견하는 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 이전 네트워크에서 변화한 요소들을 인지하고, 이전 커뮤니티 그룹 구조를 점진적으로 재활용함으로써 효율적인 커뮤니티 발견이 가능하다.

Purpose: This study examined characteristics and patterns of interorganizational networks for smoking prevention and cessation in Korea. Methods: We surveyed two community health centers, ninety-five hospitals or clinics, ninety- two pharmacies, and sixty-five health welfare organizations in two districts of Seoul in 2020. Data on the organizations' characteristics of smoking cessation and interorganizational activities for information sharing, client referral, and program collaboration were collected and analyzed using network statistics and blockmodeling. Results: Network size was in the order of information sharing, client referral, and program collaboration networks. Network patterns for interorganizational activities on information sharing, client referral, and program collaboration among four organizations were similar between the two districts. Community health centers provided information and received clients from a majority of the organizations. Their interactions were not unidirectional but mutual with other organizations. Pharmacies were involved in information sharing with health welfare organizations and client referrals to hospitals or clinics. Health welfare organizations were primarily connected with the community health centers for client referrals and program collaboration. Conclusion: A community health center is the lead agency in interorganizational activities for smoking prevention and cessation. However, hospitals or clinics, pharmacies, and health welfare organizations also participate in interorganizational networks for smoking prevention and cessation with diverse roles. This study would be evidence for developing future interorganizational networks for smoking prevention and cessation.

Purpose: This study was conducted to test the model for sleep in community-dwelling older adults. The hypothetical model based on a senescent sleep model was constructed using the multiple influencing factors of sleep and associated adverse outcomes of changes in sleep in the older adults. Methods: Data were collected from 203 community-dwelling older adults living in Korea, and analyzed using IBM SPSS 21.0 and AMOS 21.0. Results: Increased age and multiple comorbidities were associated with decreased physical activities. Decreased physical activities were associated with smaller social networks, and smaller social networks were associated with higher level of loneliness. Multiple comorbidities, decreased physical activities, larger social networks, and higher level of loneliness were associated with maladaptive sleep hygiene. Decreased physical activities, higher level loneliness, and shorter actual sleep duration were associated with worse sleep quality. Smaller social networks and shorter actual sleep duration were associated with lower cognitive functions. Smaller social networks, higher loneliness, and worse sleep quality were associated with more severe depressive symptoms. Conclusion: These findings suggest that the sleep improvement interventions not only with physical perspectives but psychosocial ones for older adults may improve depressive symptoms as well as sleep quality.

사회 관계망에서 영향력의 전파는 중요한 연구 이슈이다. 영향 전파는 임의의 노드로 부터 새로운 아이디어, 정보, 소문의 전파로 인해 다른 노드들의 상태나 성질이 변화하는 것을 뜻한다. 영향을 받은 노드는 자신과 통신하는 다른 노드에게도 영향을 주고 영향은 확산되어 네트워크 내에서 퍼져 나간다. 입소문 마케팅에 기반을 둔 영향력 전파 문제는 네트워크에 가장 영향력을 끼칠 수 있는 노드들을 찾아 전체 네트워크에 영향력을 최대화 하는 것이 목적이다. 본 논문에서는 Delay-Tolerant Networks에서 각 노드의 영향력을 측정하여 가장 영향력 있는 노드 집합을 선택하는 문제를 다룬다. 노드 간 연결성이 항시 보장되지 않는 Delay-Tolerant Networks 환경에서는 전체 네트워크 정보를 정확히 알 수 없기 때문에 노드의 영향력을 정확히 측정하는 것은 쉽지 않다. 본 논문에서는 Delay-Tolerant Networks 환경에서 분산 방식으로 각자 노드가 $k$-clique 구조로 커뮤니티를 구성하여 한정된 지역 정보만을 활용하여 자신의 영향력을 추정하는 방법을 제시한다. 또한, 실험을 통해 제안 기법으로 산출한 영향력 있는 노드 정보가 전체 네트워크 관점에서 산출한 영향력 있는 노드 정보와 거의 일치함을 보인다.
