Abstract

We present a tool for quick prototyping and testing graph drawing algorithms. The user interacts with the system through a diagrammatic interface. Algorithms are visually displayed as directed paths in a graph. The user can specify an algorithm by suitably combining the edges of a path. The implementation exploits the powerful functionalities of Diagram Server and has been experimented both as a research support tool and as a back-end of an industrial application.
