Abstract
In the paper we present some approach to analysis of large social networks and apply it to so called Pawlak collaboration graph. In order to build such graph we use data collected in the Rough Set Database System. Analyzing this data by means of own computer program, we discover some interesting patterns of collaboration among members of the rough set community represented by this graph.
