MEDICI: A simple to use synthetic social network data generator

This paper describes an application, called Medici, designed to produce synthetic data for social network graphs, which can be used for analysis, hypothesis testing and application development by researchers and practitioners in the field. It builds on previous work by providing an integrated system, and a user friendly screen interface. It can be run with default values to produce graph data and statistics, which can then be used for further processing. The system is made publicly available in a Github Java project. The annex provides a user manual with a screen by screen guide.
