THE SNARE LANGUAGE OVERVIEW

Abstract

Social network systems identify existing relations between social entities and provide a set of automatic inferences on these relations, promoting better interactions and collaborations between these entities. However, we find that most of existing organizational information systems do not provide, from scratch, social network features, even though they have to manage somehow social entities. The focus on this paper starts from this fact, and proposes the SNARE Language as the conceptual framework for SNARE system, short for “Social Network Analysis and Reengineering Environment”. The SNARE’s purpose is to promote social network capabilities in information systems not designed originally for the effect. Visual models are needed to infer and represent new or established patterns of relations. This paper overviews the SNARE language and shows its applicability through several models regarding the application of the SNARE to the LinkedIn real scenario.
