Resumo


Relationships between users in social networks are evaluated in different ways. Here, our goal is to measure the strength of the ties between GitHub users by considering the temporal aspect of the network. Specifically, we analyze the evolution of these relationships by applying a classification algorithm over a GitHub network and calculate the persistence of them over different classes. The results bring new information about the collaborative software development process on the platform.
