graphviz is a set of graph drawing tools for Unix or MS-Windows
|
| 7 |
|
|
(win32), including a web service interface (webdot). Source code and
|
| 8 |
|
|
binary executables for common platforms are available. Graph drawing
|
| 9 |
|
|
addresses the problem of visualizing structural information by
|
| 10 |
|
|
constructing geometric representations of abstract graphs and networks.
|
| 11 |
|
|
Automatic generation of graph drawings has important applications in key
|
| 12 |
|
|
technologies such as database design, software engineering, VLSI and
|
| 13 |
|
|
network design and visual interfaces in other domains. Situations where
|
| 14 |
|
|
these tools might be particularly useful include:
|
| 15 |
|
|
|
| 16 |
|
|
* you would like to restructure a program and first need to
|
| 17 |
|
|
understand the relationships between its types, procedures, and source
|
| 18 |
|
|
files.
|
| 19 |
|
|
* you need to find the bottlenecks in an Internet backbone - not
|
| 20 |
|
|
only individual links, but their relationships
|
| 21 |
|
|
* you're debugging a protocol or microarchitecture represented as a
|
| 22 |
|
|
finite state machine and need to figure out how a certain
|
| 23 |
|
|
error state arises
|
| 24 |
|
|
* you would like to browse a database schema, knowledge base, or
|
| 25 |
|
|
distributed program represented pictorially
|
| 26 |
|
|
* you would like to see an overview of a collection of linked
|
| 27 |
|
|
documents
|
| 28 |
|
|
* you would like to discover patterns and communities of interest in
|
| 29 |
|
|
a database of telephone calls or e-mail messages
