Spreading dynamics on networks: from social interactions to epidemics and pandemics — •Fakhteh Ghanbarnejad — Sharif University of Technology, Tehran, Iran

Spreading of gossips, news, infectious diseases, computer viruses, new products, etc. are some examples of epidemic dynamics. In this tutorial, firstly we review the basic models for modelling such phenomena including deterministic and stochastic approaches. Also we address how social contacts and the underlying topology of interactions can affect the dynamics. Finally we discuss when and how a spreading dynamics may end to a widespread endemic or pandemic and if and how social interactions play a role.
