Abstract

Social Network Analysis (SNA) is now a key technique in recent social analysis. This paper focuses on having a Facebook crawler system to extract data. It has a complete support for non-Latin languages. The proposed application is a platform independent and can be accessible from different devices. It is built using JavaScript, HTML5, PHP, CSS, SVG and MySQL. New crawler designed and implemented from scratch by using JavaScript to provide a powerful and suitable crawler for the project purpose and insert data directly to proposed SNA system database for analysing it later using SNA metrics to obtain the SNA report.
