ABSTRACT
We present a new type of visualization designed to help the understanding of inner mechanisms of mass cooperation. This type of cooperation is ubiquitous nowadays, not only in Online Social Networks, but also in many other situations, such as scientific research on a worldwide scale. Mass cooperation is also at the source of most complex systems. One problem to which researchers are confronted to when they study such cooperation is to build an intuitive representation of what is happening. Many tools and metrics exist to study the results of the cooperation, but sometimes, these metrics can be misleading if one doesn't really observe what the cooperation process really looks like. The main proposition of this paper is a visualization of the cooperation flow. The novelty of our approach is to represent the internal structure of the cooperation in a longitudinal perspective. Through examples, we present how one can form a rich understanding of what form the cooperation takes in a given context, and how this understanding can help to formulate hypothesis which can consequently be studied with appropriate tools such as statistical analysis.

A Model and Framework for Visualization Exploration
Visualization exploration is the process of extracting insight from data via interaction with visual depictions of that data. Visualization exploration is more than presentation; the interaction with both the data and its depiction is as important as ...
Outage analysis and diversity-multiplexing tradeoff bounds for opportunistic relaying coded cooperation and distributed space-time coding coded cooperation
In this paper, we analyze the outage probability of coded cooperation in opportunistic relaying (OR-CC) and distributed space-time coding (DSTC-CC) cooperative communication systems at arbitrary signal to noise ratios (SNRs) and number of available ...
Outage analysis of coded cooperation
Cooperative communication is an emerging paradigm where multiple mobiles share their resources (bandwidth and power) to achieve better overall performance. Coded cooperation is a mechanism where cooperation is combined with-and operates through-channel ...
