  abstract =	 {Over time, people change whom they interact with and
                  where they are. Understanding how changes in social
                  and geospatial relations interact is critical to a
                  number of areas--from general social change to
                  counternarcotics and counterterrorism. For instance,
                  as terrorists attempt different tasks, they move to
                  new locations and interact with different
                  groups. This article introduces a simple theoretical
                  multiagent model for reasoning about the criticality
                  of agents and locations as agent interactions
                  coevolve in geographical and social spaces. The
                  model simulates social changes in whom agents
                  interact with and spatial changes in where they
                  relocate to as a function of learning and
                  social-network evolutions. The analysis suggests
                  that terrorists will disperse around the world
                  rather than gather at a specific location. However,
                  terrorists who have been the center of social
                  networks will stay the same. This model helps us
                  gain insights into the complexities of organizations
                  evolving in the social and the geospatial dimensions
                  simultaneously. This article is part of a special
                  issue on social computing.},
