The goal of this work is to create software that analyzes Rhea. This can be applied to any MediaWiki-based system. The requirements are 1. It can give the statistical information such as the number of articles, the number of authors, the average number of coauthors per page, the maximum number of pages by an author, and etc. 2. It can give the parameters of the coauthor network such as diameter, radius, degree distribution, and etc. 3. It can give the information in chart for intuitive representation as well as in text. 4. It can track the growth of Rhea. In other words, it will limit the period that the analysis applies.

There are lots of MediaWiki-based systems. This program will be useful tool to get an insight how a coauthor network is constructed including Rhea.

The additional functionalities that are desired are 1. It can give the graphical representation of coauthor network. 2. It can import dataset of graph. It will analyze the graph as it does for Rhea. 3. It can synthetically generate graph using several graph generating models with given parameters. (Simulation)
