Speech Title: Graph Isomorphism on Different Networks
Abstract: Graphs are a powerful representation of the objects and their concepts. Objects are not important but nodes and arcs define the relation among objects. Many real world problems are represented by graphs. Graph isomorphism is the area widely used in various applications such as computer networks, GIS, Social Networks. In this speech, graph isomorphism on different applications are discussed.
