Abstract
Abstract—Dynamic Network Analysis is a domain of computation
that refers to the analysis of complex social systems that change
over time. Within this domain, analysts need to be able to carry
out workflows, involving composition of various tools and procedures
that they use to extract and analyze social systems. Typically
these workflows require the incorporation of heterogeneous
tools in distributed locations, are interactive in that they allow
dynamic parameterization and exploration, and can be shared
with and reused by other analysts in different contexts. Furthermore,
because such analysts are not computer programmers,
they require an approach for constructing workflows that allows
them to focus on their analysis task, and that provides them with
appropriate guidance in constructing and reusing workflows. In
this paper, we describe a tool, called SWiFT, that provides a
workflow construction environment for dynamic network analysis,
built on a service oriented architecture, that provides these
features. |
