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 |
