Handbook Of Graph Drawing And Visualization by Roberto Tamassia
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
In the topological and geometric foundations to graph drawing, this collections goes beyond defining planarity or even minimizing edge crossings. This handbook also covers spine, radial, circular, tree, and rectangular drawing definitions and algorithms. There is much content on formally defining and approaching such subjective and even aesthetic areas as legibility in name placement and labeling as well as maximizing pleasing symmetries and other methods related to edge lengths and linearity research has shown to impart information to humans effectively. Many chapters touch on history and open problems in this well-arranged compendium weighted toward content ripe for practical implementation.
