Hi everyone,
I am looking for some advice on what to use to perform a network analysis. Specifically, I want to evaluate the frequency/strength of connections between country collaboration on pan-European projects (i.e. Erasmus+ Projects). I already have the data set in Excel, but I do not know how to translate that to a proper network analysis or into a graph depicting these relationships.
So I am putting the question out there: what software would best and most easily allow me to do so?
Thanks!
Louis
If you already have your data in Excel, NodeXL, which is an add-in for Excel (and is used for social network analysis) might be an easy way out for you. I also suggest that you look at previous questions related to this subject, because probably you will find some.
Dear Sir,
There are various software available for network analysis. For example, cytoscape, Pajek etc.
Well, it depends on what way do you have this data in Excel. Traffic volume between countries (or organizations), or actual raw packet-trace (or somewhere in-between)? If you have the packet-trace only, you need to define what IP address ranges belong to each other (and to the same country/org) - for that you have public databases and IP range mapping methods to work from. Of course, you need to cluster from- and to-addresses as well, for which Excel can help by itself. For visualization: you can choose from mand graph visualization tools, or use Python visualization add-ons.
