  • Abstract
    The paper presents Visual-VM, a social network visualization tool, where the main focus is to provide utilities for viral marketing (e.g., Influence maximization). Besides, Visual-VM utilizes the location information of each user (which could be estimated from the user´s profile) for social network visualization, which is not used in existing social network visualization tools. Visual-VM also supports common utilities for social network exploration.
