Description

Circular layout, after Six and Tollis ‘99, Kaufmann and Wiese ‘02. The algorithm finds biconnected components and arranges each component in a circle, trying to minimize the number of crossings inside the circle. This is suitable for certain diagrams of multiple cyclic structures such as certain telecommunications networks.

Category: Circle

Circular layout algorithms emphasize cycles or biconnected components of a graph by arranging them in circles. This is useful if a drawing is desired where such components are clearly grouped, or where cycles are shown as prominent OPTIONS of the graph.
