Abstract

This thesis proposes a new social network simulator, which can be used for the social network analysis (SNA). It is composed of three modules; initialization, network evolution, and output generation. For the network evolution module, we suggest a modified JGN (MJGN) based on JGN, the network evolution model developed by Jin, Girvan, and Newman. Arena, one of the most popular simulation tools, was used to model the agent based social network simulator. Lastly, some test results were presented to show the value of the proposed simulator when one performs SNA at the longitudinal point of view.
