Abstract

We consider the coordinate assignment phase of the well known Sugiyama framework for drawing directed graphs in a hierarchical style. The extensive literature in this area has given comparatively little attention to a prescribed width of the drawing. We present a minimum cost flow formulation that supports prescribed width and optionally other criteria like lower and upper bounds on the distance of neighboring nodes in a layer or enforced vertical edge segments. In our experiments we demonstrate that our approach can compete with state-of-the-art algorithms.
