The term social network was first mentioned in 1954 by J.A. Barnes [16]. The social network is a structure that consists of nodes; the nodes represent individual people or organizations. Such a structure depicts the ways in which people are connected through diverse social familiarities like acquaintance, friendship or close familiar bonds.
