Abstract
Influence Analysis is one of the well-known areas of Social Network Analysis. However, discovering influencers from micro-blog networks based on topics has gained recent popularity due to its specificity. Besides, these data networks are massive, continuous and evolving. Therefore, to address the above challenges we propose a dynamic framework for topic modelling and identifying influencers in the same process. It incorporates dynamic sampling, community detection and network statistics over graph data stream from a social media activity management application. Further, we compare the graph measures against each other empirically and observe that there is no evidence of correlation between the sets of users having large number of friends and the users whose posts achieve high acceptance (i.e., highly liked, commented and shared posts). Therefore, we propose a novel approach that incorporates a user's reachability and also acceptability by other users. Consequently, we improve on graph metrics by including a dynamic acceptance score (integrating content quality with network structure) for ranking influencers in micro-blogs. Additionally, we analysed the topic clusters' structure and quality with empirical experiments and visualization.

Abstract
The systematic review reported by this article aimed to analyze and synthesize state-of-the-art studies focused on the cyber resilience of healthcare information systems, namely in terms of (i) their purposes and (ii) methods being used to validate the proposed solutions. An electronic search was conducted, and 14 studies were included in this systematic review after the selection process. The research related to cyber resilience in the context of healthcare information systems is relatively recent and it is increasing, and according to the findings five different purposes were identified: (i) strategies to improve the cyber resilience of healthcare information systems; (ii) methods to design cyber resilient healthcare information systems; (iii) risk assessment; (iv) cyber resilience frameworks; and (v) development of cyber resilient healthcare information systems. Moreover, the solutions reported by the included articles present a low maturity level, which means that further research is required to increase the cyber resilience of healthcare information systems that constitute critical assets of the healthcare provision.

Abstract
Finite-State Automata (FSA) are foundations for modelling, synthesis, verification, and implementation of controllers for manufacturing systems. However, FSA are limited to represent emerging features in manufacturing, such as the ability to recognise and switch contexts. One option is to enrich FSA with parameters that carry details about the manufacturing, which may favour design and control. A parameter can be embedded either on transitions or states of an FSA, and each approach defines its own modelling framework, so that their comparison and integration are not straightforward, and they may lead to different control solutions, modelled, processed and implemented distinctly. In this paper, we show how to combine advantages from parameters in manufacturing the modelling and control. We initially present a background that allows to understand each parameterisation strategy. Then, we introduce a conversion method that translates a design-friendly model into a synthesis-efficient structure. Finally, we use the converted models is synthesis, highlighting their advantages. Examples are used throughout the paper to illustrate and compare our results and tooling support is also provided.
