Simple contagion processes underlie various phenomena on complex networks, such as the spread of diseases on social-contact networks and information in communication networks; understanding their dynamics and developing control mechanisms are key issues in numerous applications. The goals of this proposal are: (i) Developing methods to construct synthetic relational networks using partial and noisy data; (ii) Understanding the structure of these networks and the contagion processes, and especially important network properties and typical patterns that have an impact on the dynamics of contagion; (iii) Developing techniques to control the spread of contagion processes, and to detect, prevent and arrest cascading failures in coupled socio-technical networks; and (iv) Understanding the co-evolution between the networks and dynamics, and using this to refine their models, and the strategies to control them.

简单的传染过程是复杂网络上各种现象的基础，例如疾病在社交网络上的传播和信息在通信网络上的传播；了解它们的动态并开发控制机制是许多应用中的关键问题。该提案的目标是：（i）开发使用部分数据和噪声数据构建综合关系网络的方法； (ii) 了解这些网络的结构和传染过程，以及对传染动态有影响的特别重要的网络特性和典型模式； (iii) 开发技术来控制传染过程的蔓延，并检测、预防和阻止耦合社会技术网络中的级联故障； （iv）了解网络和动态之间的共同进化，并利用它来完善他们的模型以及控制它们的策略。
