With the rising of Web 2.0, evolution of the traditional static Web born with the advent of Internet, that comprised only pages defined without interaction between the virtual world and the physical Person, Social Network online are being more and more diffused. They allow to find online lots of Persons, like in real life, with virtual ties of friendship.
This job of Thesis provides to model techniques for create Friendship Recommendation for an active user in an Online Social Network. It is based on three fundamental supports:
- The collection of the Candidates to suggest;
- The generation of the Personal Network of the user analized;

All this has been thought before from a theoretical point of view and then implemented through different Modules Software that render all automated.
