Drawing Bipartite Graphs as Anchored Maps
Misue, K.
A method of drawing anchored maps for bipartite graphs is presented. Suppose that the node set of a bipartite graph is divided into set A and set B. On an anchored map of the bipartite graph, the nodes in A, which are called 'anchor nodes,' are arranged on the circumference, and the nodes in B, which are called 'free nodes,' are arranged at suitable positions in relation to the adjacent anchor nodes. This article describes aesthetic criteria that are employed according to the purpose of drawing anchored maps and a method to arrange the anchor nodes so that they satisfy the criteria. The effectiveness of the proposed method is discussed in terms of the aesthetics of drawing results.
