Social Network Simulation
Social networks appear in different forms in various domains. Online social networks, mobile communication networks, co-authoring networks and human interactions in real life are some examples of social networks. Today, analysis of dynamics and evolution of social networks is an important field of research. Computer simulation is a powerful method of study – and in some cases the only one – in this field. Agent-based computer simulation has found many applications for simulation of social processes and Agent Based Social Simulation (ABSS) became the dominant method in this area. Although there exist some well-known and mature ABSS models and frameworks for social simulation, but most of them have limitations for social network simulation. It seems that new researches are needed in the field of social network simulation.
