Abstract :
In the mobile call mini challenge of VAST 2008 contest, we explored the temporal communication patterns of Catalano/Vidro social network which is reflected in the mobile call data. We focus on detecting the hierarchy of the social network and try to get the important actors in it. We present our tools and methods in this summary. By using the visual analytic approaches, we can find out not only the temporal communication patterns in the social network but also the hierarchy of it.
