Who's who project

Coordinator : David Chavalarias Participant : Frederic Amblard

This project aims at a regular edition of a who's who in complex systems. The first issues has already been downloaded more than 7000 times ! To foster collaborations within the complex systems community, the Who's Who Issue III will be accompanied by an online brower of the bipartite graph generated from scholars names and their keywords.

We intend to send a paper version once a year of the who's who to all institutions registered on the CSS website and to update online the document once each four months.

Current phase

Edit the directory of your own Institution

Scholar have the possibility to select their organization employer in a drop-down list of their profile : 'Organization Employer (select or fill the field below):'

If you have registered your organization, your members will be able to select it in their profile. Persons in charge of an institution can then ask for the permission to export a CSV file from the CSS site with the data of their members. We provide a matlab script that convert this CSV into a latex document in the style of the CSS Who's who (see attachment). You then can customize the layout to your institution.
