SIENA: Simulation Investigation for Empirical Network Analysis
by possibly noteworthy at 3:45 pm EDT, Oct 14, 2007

SIENA is a program for the statistical analysis of network data, with the focus on social networks.

The main approach used by SIENA for modeling dynamics of network (or of networks and behavior) is an actor-oriented model, in which it is assumed that the social actors who are represented by the nodes in the network play a crucial role in changing their ties to other actors; in the case of associated behavior dynamics, also in changing their behavior. As an alternative, tie-oriented models are also available. All of these models are Markov chain models; such models are more applicable to relations and behavioral variables that can be regarded as states than to relations or behavior that are more adequately regarded as non-enduring events.
