I'd image that social network mapping is a very multidimensional data model. Have you found an open source library that integrates well with complex data structures without out too much plumbing? Any demos online?

Right now, the fuzzing lab is essentially a 6-core/16 gig machine with VMWare Workstation. I'm just starting to experiment with fuzzing and so far am enjoying the Peach Framework. It does a great job with both mutative and generative fuzzing algorythms and is Python, so it's very cross-platform. Next step is figuring out getting debugger information off of VMs in an automated fashion. It's fun stuff.

Eventually, I'd like to beef up the hardware a little bit and put in into a rack at the space and come up with a collaborative workflow for test harness design and crash analysis.
