A New Network Topology Visualization Algorithm
Yang Guozheng, Yuliang Lu, Huixian Chen · 2011
This paper devotes into the technology of network topology visualization, introduces several current network topology visualization algorithms firstly. Then aimed to the display problem for large size network, puts forward a new network topology visualization algorithm which contains two policies: one is the layer model determined by network characters, another is the dynamic layout process by force-directed. After the analysis of algorithm efficiency, we implement it in our visualization tool. In our experiment, it can effectively and clearly display moderate computer network topology. We also design a valid route visualization finding method based on this displayed network topology.
