Abstract

When we want to draw a graph to make the information contained in its structure easily accessible, it is highly desirable to have a drawing with as few edge crossings as possible (Purchase et al., 1997; Purchase, 1997). The class of graphs that can be drawn with no crossings at all is the class of planar graphs. Algorithms for drawing planar graphs are the main subject of this chapter.
