Thanks for all repliers. :) I present a list of the answers I've received and my question.


0. my question

Hi All-

I have a inter-computer communication network data over times for 1 year by
2 month term. Classical SNA softwares like UciNET, NetMiner seem to don't
support that data. After socnet & google searching, I found 'SoNIA',
'GUESS', 'Pajek' are good tools for Visualizing time-event network, 'Siena'
is a good tool for Analyzing time-event network.

But, are those all?
Is there only one tool enabling network-analysis for time event network?

Would you give me some more references?

Thanks in advance for any comments.

Best Regards
Se Kwon, Kim

If you want a _tool_--that is, a finished application that has certain specified capabilities--then you know as much as I do about what's available.

However, if you have specific analyses that you want to perform that aren't covered by an existing tool, JUNG is good for that; I've used it in this way for my own research on a continuing basis. It works great as long as you're willing to write at least some code.


2. from [Kathleen Carley]

you could analyze it with ORA, and visualize changes in net stats with ORA - see www.casos.cs.cmu.edu and then go to tools

Hi Kim,

You should also have a closer look at TeCFlow:

If you are interested, I will mail you the most recent version.

take a look at the chapter on longitudinal networks in carrington, scott, and wasserman (2005) (as well as the chapter on software)

Se Kwon,
Yes, I use the Galileo System for modelling longitudinal networks. I works best with networks with a completely interconnected netwrok, with a density of 1.0. See Barnett & Rice in Social Networks mid 1980s
and my article in American Behaavioral Science 2002. I've develop some animation software to show changes in networks that I hope to present at Sunbelt this April.
