SocNetV is an application for the Linux desktop written in C++/Qt. Its main objective is to provide a sensible means for Social Networks Analysis and Visualisation on the Linux platform, while practicing the K.I.S.S. directive (KISS: Keep it simple, stupid).

The program is completely stand-alone with no strange library dependencies (only Qt4 is required). With it, you can read and visualise various network file formats and/or visually create and modify a network using your mouse. SocNetV will happily compute network and actor properties, such as distances, centralities, diameter etc, for you. Furthermore, it can create simple random networks (lattice, same degree, etc). Be aware, there is no warranty of efficiency, correctness or usability.

To see SocNetV in action, you need a modern Linux distro with the Qt4 library installed. Download the latest release of SocNetV from the menu "Download":
  • If you wish to compile, download the tarball. Then untar it, cd to the new directory, and type:
    qmake-qt4
    (or wherever are your Qt4 libs). Afterwards, compile and run by:
    make 
    cd bin
    ./socnetv
    
  • Alternatively, try some of the binary packages (Debian, Klik, etc).
