}Short-message (SM) is one of the most frequently used communication channels in the modern society. In this Brief Report, based on the SM communication records provided by some volunteers, we investigate the statistics of SM communication pattern, including the interevent time distributions between two consecutive short messages and two conversations, and the distribution of message number contained by a complete conversation. In the individual level, the current empirical data raises a strong…

Calling patterns in human communication dynamics

It is confirmed that the intercall durations follow a power-law distribution with an exponential cutoff at the population level but found differences when focusing on individual users, which may enable a more detailed analysis of the huge body of data contained in the logs of massive users.

Intraday patterns and clustering results showed that both call frequency and call duration are primarily related to circadian cycles, the nature of human beings, and that work is a secondary factor that affects these variables.

It is shown that people's behaviors online have similar time characteristic with that of real life, and they submit obviously more posts and replies on work time and seldom do actions after midnight, which are helpful to the behavior-based detection of spam and spammer.
A parallel data generator for efficiently generating “realistic” social streams
- Computer ScienceFrontiers of Computer Science

A framework of synthetic social stream generator (SSG) is proposed and it is confirmed that SSG can generate social stream data continuously with stable throughput and memory consumption and that the throughput of the parallel implementation can increase linearly by increasing nodes.
