@inbook{tyler2003email, abstract = {We describe a method for the automatic identification of communities of practice from email logs within an organization. We use a betweenness centrality algorithm that can rapidly find communities within a graph representing information flows. We apply this algorithm to an email corpus of nearly one million messages collected over a two-month span, and show that the method is effective at identifying true communities, both formal and informal, within these scale-free graphs. This approach also enables the identification of leadership roles within the communities. These studies are complemented by a qualitative evaluation of the results in the field.}, address = {Deventer, The Netherlands, The Netherlands}, author = {Tyler, Joshua R. and Wilkinson, Dennis M. and Huberman, Bernardo A.}, booktitle = {Communities and technologies}, interhash = {c712e59ff99f12c42a5d3c3b0bf4c48f}, intrahash = {b272b4797aec6d5e3a4972592af93ab2}, pages = {81--96}, publisher = {Kluwer, B.V.}, title = {Email as Spectroscopy: Automated Discovery of Community Structure within Organizations}, url = {http://www.citebase.org/cgi-bin/citations?id=oai:arXiv.org:cond-mat/0303264}, year = 2003 } @misc{tyler2003email, author = {Tyler, Joshua R and Wilkinson, Dennis M and Huberman, Bernardo A}, interhash = {c712e59ff99f12c42a5d3c3b0bf4c48f}, intrahash = {9cf2e42d9c90d4fbcbdc94c75d21ca99}, title = {Email as Spectroscopy: Automated Discovery of Community Structure within Organizations}, url = {http://www.citebase.org/cgi-bin/citations?id=oai:arXiv.org:cond-mat/0303264}, year = 2003 }
