This paper proposes a conceptual modelling paradigm for network analysis applications, called the Network Analytics ER model (NAER). Not only data requirements but also query requirements are captured by the conceptual description of network analysis applications. This unified analytical framework allows us to flexibly build a number of topology schemas on the basis of the underlying core schema, together with a collection of query topics that describe topological results of interest. In doing so, we can alleviate many issues in network analysis, such as performance, semantic integrity and dynamics of analysis.Read the full paper here: https://link-springer-com.proxy2.hec.ca/chapter/10.1007/978-3-319-12206-9_13
