This article shows the significance of the Social Network Analysis method in the study of Judea in the first century AD. The author presents the method and then shows its application on the example of the role of individual cities of Galilee. The situation concerns the time of the Jewish uprising in Galilee over a period of several months (autumn 66 - July 67 AD). After analyzing the situation in Galilee based on the works of Joseph Flavius, a graph was generated using the Ucinet computer program. The use of SNA in the study of the importance of individual cities in Galilee drew attention to the town of Gamla, which Joseph Flavius considered the most important fortress in this area. In addition, the graph showing the visits of individual insurgents to the cities of Galilee showed that Sepphoris was visited by both supporters and opponents of Joseph Flavius. Despite the fact that the inhabitants supported the Romans, they did not give up any rebel who visited them. The study confirmed the usefulness of the SNA method in undertaking subsequent analyzes of the works of Joseph Flavius.

Covid-19 is a disease of the virus that is shaking the world and has been designated by WHO as a pandemic. This case of Covid-19 can be a place of dissemination of disinformation that can be utilized by some parties. The dissemination of information in this day and age has turned to the internet, namely social media, Twitter is one of the social media that is often used by Indonesians and the data can be analyzed. This study uses the social network analysis method, conducted to be able to find nodes that affect the ongoing interaction in the interaction network of information dissemination related to Covid-19 in Indonesia and see if the node is directly proportional to the value of its popularity. As well as to know in identifying the source of Covid-19 information, whether dominated by competent Twitter accounts in their fields. The data examined 19,939 nodes and 12,304 edges were taken from data provided by the web academic.droneemprit.id on the project "Analisis Opini Persebaran Virus Corona di Media Sosial", using the period of December 2019 to December 2020 on social media Twitter. The results showed that the @do_ra_dong account is an influential actor with the highest degree centrality of 860 and the @detikcom account is the actor with the highest popularity value of follower rank of 0.994741605. Thus actors who have a high degree of centrality value do not necessarily have a high follower rank value anyway. The study ignores if there are buzzer accounts on Twitter.

This paper takes 31 leading textile and apparel trade countries or regions in the world as the research object. It constructs the adjacency matrix for the trade relations. Using social network analysis method, it measures the network structure of the global textile and apparel trade respectively from the perspectives of trade network diagram, network density, centrality. According to this result, it explores Chinas position on the global textile and apparel trade and interprets it.

Social network analysis encompasses a variety of methods to study the social relations and social interactions between individual units in a group. This chapter offers an overview of the types of research questions that can be answered with social network analysis and discusses appropriate statistical methods and network sampling approaches to answer such questions. Six basic types of models are identified, based on two criteria: (1) whether the researchers are interested in the antecedents of networks and/or their consequences and (2) the appropriate level of analysis, in particular the dyadic, nodal, or group level. Extensions and variations of these six basic models are discussed, for example models where networks take on the role of mediator or moderator, as well as models that incorporate multiple levels of analysis and models that integrate network antecedents and network consequences simultaneously.

Engineering cost budgeting is crucial to the healthy development of the engineering and construction industry. To solve the problem of large deviations in budget results from using traditional methods of cost budgeting based on evaluation results or drawing conversions, the BIM engineering cost budgeting method based on social network analysis method is studied in this paper. On the basis of analyzing cost budgeting requirements and determining modeling economic criteria, the social network analysis method is used to analyze the project cost risks. According to the project quantity list, professional BIM software is used to budget the project cost. Case verification proves the feasibility of this budgeting method as the budget deviation is reduced by about 78% compared with the traditional method. The result of the paper has a more ideal practical application effect and positive significance for optimizing the traditional cost budgeting methods

Abstract This article revisits the application of Social Network Analysis to the study of language maintenance and language shift in the Chinese community in Britain. An approach that focuses more on individual variations, including variable behaviours by the same speaker in different contexts, is proposed. The approach is illustrated with new data from Chinese-speaking families in London. The role of the social media in language maintenance and language shift, and in promoting multilingual practices is explored.

A governance networks literature that uses social network analysis has emerged, but research tends to be more technical than conceptual. This restricts its accessibility and usefulness for non-quantitative scholars and practitioners alike. Furthermore, the literature has not adequately appreciated the importance of informal networking for the effective operation of governance networks. This can hinder inter-disciplinary analysis. Through a critical review, this article identifies four areas of challenge for the governance networks literature and offers four corresponding, complementary sets of concepts from the social network analysis field: (a) the difference between policy networks and governance networks, (b) the role and status of people in governance networks, (c) the ‘dark side’ of networks and the role of power differentials within them and (d) network evaluation and the question of ‘what works’ in network management. The article argues that a less technical, more accessible account of social network analysis offers an additional lens through which to view governance networks.

Currently, the growth of internet users has been accompanied by the development of applications that support interaction among users, which is called social media. One of the popular social media in society today is twitter. Data on Twitter can be presented in a graph structure visualization in nodes that represent actors and edges that represent relationships between actors. In an effort to find the most influential actors and actors who interact the most in spreading the Natuna topic on social media twitter, an analysis will be carried out using the Social Network Analysis method using the Degree Centrality approach. The data used in this study were taken from December 20, 2019 at 00.00 WIB to January 7, 2020 at 10.00 WIB consisting of 71,477 nodes and 147066 edges. The results of this study can be concluded that the @susipudjiastuti account is the most influential actor and plays an important role in social networking because the @susipudjiastuti account is the most linked account with 29755 links. Meanwhile, the @ shaktia704 account was the most active account during the data collection period, which reached 259 links.
