The International School and Conference on Network Science, also called NetSci, is an annual conference focusing on
networks
Network, networking and networked may refer to:
Science and technology
* Network theory, the study of graphs as a representation of relations between discrete objects
* Network science, an academic field that studies complex networks
Mathematics
...
. It is organized yearly since 2006 by th
Network Science Society Physicists are especially prominently represented among the participants, though people from other backgrounds attend as well. The study of networks expanded at the end of the twentieth century, with increasing citation of some seminal papers.
Following this increase in interest from the scientific community, network science was examined by the National Research Council (NRC), the arm of the US National Academies in charge of offering policy recommendations to the US government. NRC assembled two panels, resulting in recommendations summarized in two NRC Reports, offering a definition of the field of network science. These reports not only documented the emergence of a new research field, but highlighted the field’s role for science, national competitiveness and security. The NetSci conference series was set up in 2006 to address the need of the new and emerging highly

Interdisciplinarity or interdisciplinary studies involves the combination of multiple academic disciplines into one activity (e.g., a research project). It draws knowledge from several other fields like sociology, anthropology, psychology, ec ...
network science community to meet and exchange ideas. The NetSci conference has been a yearly event since then. In 2015, a shorter regional conference, called NetSci-X, was added.
History
The formal NetSci conference series was preceded by several meetings:
RESEARCH WORKSHOP ON GRAPH THEORY AND STATISTICAL PHYSICS ICTP Trieste May 22–25 (2000)
(2002)
COSIN ProjectMidterm Conference (2003)
CNLS Annual Conference 2003 Networks, Structure, Dynamics and Function, May 12–26, Santa Fe, New Mexico. Organized by Zoltán Toroczkai, Eli Ben-Naim, Hans Frauenfelder, Pieter Swart, supported by Los Alamos National Laboratory.
* Aveiro Conference CNET 2004 August 29–September 2 (2004)
School and Workshop on Structure and Function of Complex Networks ICTP Trieste May 16–28 (2005)
In 2006 these events became part of an organized structure with one network conference per year.
