Navigating Clustered Graphs using Force-Directed Methods
Overview Graphs which arise in Information Visualization applications are typically very large: thousands, or perhaps millions of nodes. Current graph drawing methods successfully deal with (at best) a few hundred nodes. This paper describes a strategy for the visualization and navigation of graphs. The strategy has three elements: A layered architecture, called CGA, for handling clustered graphs: these are graphs with a hierarchical node clustering superimposed. An online force-directed graph drawing method. Animation methods etc.
