Advisers to the Nation on Stienre, Engineering, aniMeditine
The National Academy of Sciences is a private, nonprofit, self-perpetuating society of distinguished scholars engaged in
scientific and engineering research, dedicated to the furtherance of science and technology and to their use for the general
welfare. Upon the authority of the charter granted to it by the Congress in 1863, the Academy has a mandate that requires it to
advise the federal government on scientific and technical matters. Dr. Bruce M. Alberts is president of the National Academy
of Sciences.
The National Academy of Engineering was established in 1964, under the charter of the National Academy of Sciences, as a
parallel organization of outstanding engineers. It is autonomous in its administration and in the selection of its members,
sharing with the National Academy of Sciences the responsibility for advising the federal government. The National Academy
of Engineering also sponsors engineering programs aimed at meeting national needs, encourages education and research, and
recognizes the superior achievements of engineers. Dr. Wm. A. Wulf is president of the National Academy of Engineering.
The Institute of Medicine was established in 1970 by the National Academy of Sciences to secure the services of eminent
members of appropriate professions in the examination of policy matters pertaining to the health of the public. The Institute
acts under the responsibility given to the National Academy of Sciences by its congressional charter to be an adviser to the
federal government and, upon its own initiative, to identify issues of medical care, research, and education. Dr. Harvey V.
Fineberg is president of the Institute of Medicine.
The National Research Council was organized by the National Academy of Sciences in 1916 to associate the broad commu-
nity of science and technology with the Academy's purposes of furthering knowledge and advising the federal government.
Functioning in accordance with general policies determined by the Academy, the Council has become the principal operating
agency of both the National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Engineering in providing services to the
government, the public, and the scientific and engineering communities. The Council is administered jointly by both Acad-
emies and the Institute of Medicine. Dr. Bruce M. Alberts and Dr. Wm. A. Wulf are chair and vice chair, respectively, of the
National Research Council.

Preface
The Committee on Human Factors was established in 1980 by the Commission on Behavioral and Social
Sciences and Education. Over the years, the committee has pursued a wide range of topics dealing with theoretical
and methodological issues and with the application of principles of human behavior and performance to the design
of systems. Recent interests have included modeling individual and organizational behavior, networks and remote
collaboration, and contributions of the behavioral and organizational sciences to ensuring national security.
Within this context, the Committee on Human Factors was asked by the Office of Naval Research to hold a
workshop on social network modeling and analysis and to examine the potential of research in this area for
application to national security issues. In response, a subgroup of the committee was appointed by the National
Research Council to plan and organize the workshop. Key participants were identified and asked to write papers
and make presentations. Many of the papers focused on current developments in the science of social network
modeling and several discussed various applications, including national security. Part I of this document is a
summary of the major themes and the research issues and prospects that emerged from the presentations and
discussions. Part II contains the papers as submitted.
I would like to thank Rebecca Goolsby from the Office of Naval Research for supporting this effort and for her
interest, insights, and helpful suggestions. I would also like to extend our appreciation to National Research
Council staff Anne Mavor and Susan McCutchen for their assistance in planning and organizing the workshop.
Part I, the workshop summary, has been reviewed in draft form by individuals chosen for their diverse
perspectives and technical expertise, in accordance with procedures approved by the Report Review Committee of
the National Research Council. The purpose of this independent review is to provide candid and critical comments
that will assist the institution in making its published report as sound as possible and to ensure that the report meets
institutional standards for objectivity, evidence, and responsiveness to the charge. The review comments and draft
manuscript remain confidential to protect the integrity of the process. We thank the following individuals for their
review of Part I of this report: Karl Chopra, Aptima, Inc., Washington, DC; Patrick Doreian, Department of
Sociology, University of Pittsburgh; and Charles M. Macal, Center for Complex Adaptive Systems Simulation,
Argonne National Laboratory, Argonne, IL.
Although the reviewers listed above provided many constructive comments and suggestions, they were not
asked to endorse the content of the document nor did they see the final draft of the report before its release. The
review of this report was overseen by Paul Holland, Statistical Theory and Practice, Educational Testing Service,
Princeton, NJ. Appointed by the National Research Council, he was responsible for making certain that an
independent examination of this report was carried out in accordance with institutional procedures and that all
review comments were carefully considered. Responsibility for the final content of this report rests entirely with
the authors and the institution.
