 This second volume of the "Handbook Optimization in Complex Networks" presents the most recent research and developments in the application of optimization techniques to the study of complex communication and social networks. This book present several optimization models and their application to a variety of network settings including: online social networks, wireless communication networks, as well as models that describe virus and social media propagation. This book can serve as a useful resource to any student or researcher interested in the application of optimization techniques to communication and or social networks.
