Recently, almost all companies use computer networks to support in-house communication. However, many companies complain that communications between the divisions are insufficient. This means the traditional applications such as email, BBS, or groupware cannot support inter-division communication. To solve this problem, communication support systems that enable the users to construct loosely-coupled relations between unknown users by utilizing a social network have presented. However, these systems cannot activate communications between the users who do not have strong social relations. Therefore, a communication support system that is based on the “Information Propagation Model (IPM)” is proposed in this paper. In the IPM, users specify their neighboring users, i.e., buddies, and exchange information between them. As a result, the users can obtain information sent by unknown users through the network, which is shown in Fig. 1, so communications based on this model are expected to support communications between the users who belong to different divisions. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed communication support system, an experiment was performed at the real company for two months. 83 users participated in the experiment, and one social network was constructed. By gathering the communication logs on the system, the effectiveness of this system is evaluated by the following two criteria.
