graphviz is a set of graph drawing tools for Unix or MS-Windows
|
||
|
|
(win32), including a web service interface (webdot). Graph
|
||
|
|
drawing addresses the problem of visualizing structural information
|
||
|
|
by constructing geometric representations of abstract graphs and
|
||
|
|
networks.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The goal of graphviz has been twofold:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
to find efficient algorithms for making very readable
|
||
|
|
drawings of graphs up to several hundreds of nodes,
|
||
|
|
approaching the quality of manual layouts (made
|
||
|
|
with CAD tools). The algorithms should scale even
|
||
|
|
further, as layout of large graphs can also offer
|
||
|
|
a gestalt view of complex systems.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
to create convenient graph drawing systems and web
|
||
|
|
services. This means defining useful interfaces and
|
||
|
|
features to support applications.
