Abstract

We present a fast layout algorithm for k-level graphs with given permutations of the vertices on each level. The algorithm can be used in particular as a third phase of the Sugiyama algorithm [8]. In the generated layouts, every edge has at most two bends and is drawn vertically between these bends. The total length of short edges is minimized levelwise.
