Abstract

In 1963, Knuth published the first paper on a computer algorithm for a graph drawing problem, entitled “Computer-drawn Flowcharts” [8]. In this paper, Knuth describes an algorithm that takes as input an n-vertex directed graph G that represents a flowchart and, using the modern language of graph drawing, produces an orthogonal drawing of G.
