1. A method, in a data processing system, for managing an electronic document collection, comprising: analyzing a first electronic document to identify a reference to a second electronic document; analyzing the second electronic document to identify document dependencies with zero or more other electronic documents; generating a dependency information data structure based on the analysis of the first electronic document and the analysis of the second electronic document, wherein the dependency information data structure comprises a dependency graph data structure of the electronic document collection, the dependency graph data structure comprising first nodes representing electronic documents in the electronic document collection, second nodes representing authors of electronic documents in the electronic document collection, and edges between nodes representing relationships between nodes, wherein each of the first nodes and the second nodes have an associated node strength attribute, and wherein the associated node strength attribute is a measure of a relative importance of the associated first node or the associated second node to the dependency graph data structure of the electronic document collection and a fragility of the dependency graph data structure with regard to the associated first node or the associated second node; analyzing the dependency information data structure to identify a loaded document subset of the electronic document collection that is a subset of electronic documents to be loaded into memory when performing an information analysis operation; generating an electronic document curation action recommendation based on the identified subset of the electronic document collection; and outputting the electronic document curation action recommendation.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: analyzing the first electronic document to identify an author of the first electronic document; and identifying one or more other electronic documents having a same author as the author of the first electronic document, wherein generating the dependency information data structure is further based on the identification of the author of the first electronic document and the identification of the one or more other electronic documents having the same author.
