Abstract

We present the graph visualization system da Vinci, an interactive tool that can be used by arbitrary application programs as a user interface for graph data structures. Beside a novel automatic layout algorithm for graphs, da Vinci offers many interactive facilities such as finetuning of a layout, abstractions and scaling operations. A bidirectional application interface is used for tool communication with a program that controls the graph structure.
