A framework for human-computer interaction in directed graph drawing
Hugo Alexandre Dantas do Nascimento · 2001
This paper describes some studies in Human-Computer Interaction for Directed Graph Drawing. We have developed a system where users can help some standard graph drawing algorithms to produce nice drawings of a graph according to a set of aesthetic criteria. The system follows a general framework for interaction with optimisation processes that can be applied to many optimisation problems. Some discussion about the framework and possible improvements is presented.
