Abstract
This is a survey on graph visualization and navigation techniques, as used in information visualization. Graphs appear in numerous applications such as Web browsing, state-transition diagrams, and data structures. The ability to visualize and to navigate in these potentially large, abstract graphs is often a crucial part of an application. Information visualization has specific requirements, which means that this survey approaches the results of traditional graph drawing from a different perspective.

Drawing Clustered Bipartite Graphs in Multi-circular Style

TL;DR: A new clustered bipartite graphs visualization technique was developed for representing both bipartites and hierarchical structures simultaneously, and enables step-by-step exploration for large-scale bipartITE graphs.

Flow Graph Designer: A Tool for Designing and Analyzing Intel® Threading Building Blocks Flow Graphs

TL;DR: The Flow Graph Designer is presented, an experimental graphical tool developed to make the flow graph interface easier to adopt, use, debug and tune and the utility of this tool for important usage scenarios encountered while designing and analyzing flow graph applications is presented.

Modular techniques in information visualization

TL;DR: This paper describes initial work on using a toolkit, designed primarily for scientific and engineering applications, in a rather more abstract domain, graph visualization, and sets out the motivation for thinking in these terms.

Graph drawing by force-directed placement

TL;DR: A modification of the spring‐embedder model of Eades for drawing undirected graphs with straight edges is presented, developed in analogy to forces in natural systems, for a simple, elegant, conceptually‐intuitive, and efficient algorithm.
