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.

FragViz: visualization of fragmented networks

TL;DR: The layout optimization technique FragViz is proposed which can incorporate additional information on relations between unconnected network components and can obtain network layouts which are more interpretable and hold additional information that could not be exposed using classical network layout optimization algorithms.

Realization of Information Visualization of Electric Power Monitoring System for MV/LV Distribution Customers

TL;DR: The algorithm that analyzes abundant data measured by switchboards and displays them to overall users, such as fire information index, power condition index, switchboard safety index, and power diminution index is developed.

User-oriented graph visualization taxonomy: a data-oriented examination of visual features

TL;DR: The taxonomy for graph visualization techniques provides the user-oriented identification of applicable visual features for given data to be visualized and provides the set of visualization techniques which supports these identified visual features.

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.

Generalized fisheye views

TL;DR: This paper explores fisheye views presenting, in turn, naturalistic studies, a general formalism, a specific instantiation, a resulting computer program, example displays and an evaluation.
