Design and implementation of the contents visualization system for social networks

Abstract

Generally, social network contains a social structure between individuals who are connected by a set of social relationships, such as family, friendship, co-working and colleague etc. Our paper suggests an approach for visualizing the social network elements including users and relationships as well as the community that contains groups of users and contents. For this, we designed and implemented a social visualization system that manage and visualize the relationship among a related group of users called ‘communities’ and members including contents shared by the group users. The visualization system provides multi-dimensional layers for monitoring and arranging the social contents for its optimized way to visualize relationships among users and communities.
