Zoomgraph and the Graph Analysis Language (GAL) Eytan Adar and Joshua R. Tyler
As graph models are applied to more widely varying fields, researchers
struggle with tools for exploring and analyzing these structures. We
present the Zoomgraph visualization system which consists of a
zoomable front-end for displaying graphs and a flexible back-end that
allows for nodes and edges with an unlimited number of user-controlled
properties. This paper also describes Zoomgraph's embedded,
interpreted Graph Analysis Language (GAL) which supports the
programmatic exploration of graph structures from simple snapshots to
complex dynamics. We highlight key aspects of the system in the
context of specific, real-world, applications ranging from social and
knowledge networks to distributed computer network analysis.
