Siena (Simulation Investigation for Empirical Network Analysis)

Siena (Simulation Investigation for Empirical Network Analysis) is a free program for statistical analysis developed particularly to work with social network data, but also applicable to other forms of network data. It models network dynamics via Markov chain models; this approach is best applied to data where relations between actors and their behaviour can be treated as a state rather than as an event. Siena's statistical analysis processes can be time-consuming, as the system works via computer simulation of the network. It was in continuous development from 2001 through 2010, releasing versions up to 3.2. Development on Siena as a stand-alone program has concuded, and the project has shifted focus to RSiena, a version of Siena deployed in R.

SIMILE Widgets: Welkin

Welkin is a free tool for visualizing complex RDF models offered for download by the SIMILE Project. Rather than permitting users to focus on specific nodes, it provides analytical views such as an overview of a dataset's connectivity or potential mappings between resources and ontologies. It runs best through Java WebStart and is compatible with Windows, OS X and Linux.
