Improvement of layered directed acyclic graph layout in CourseViewer

CourseViewer is a software that uses interactive diagrams to assist students, teachers, and course coordinators in analyzing information related to academic transcripts and course curriculum, which are represented as layered directed acyclic graphs of subjects and prerequisites. Recent improvements...

description CourseViewer is a software that uses interactive diagrams to assist students, teachers, and course coordinators in analyzing information related to academic transcripts and course curriculum, which are represented as layered directed acyclic graphs of subjects and prerequisites. Recent improvements in the layout of these graphs included edge crossing minimization and better horizontal positioning of nodes. This work continues this list of improvements by means of researching edge bundling techniques that group edges of layered directed acyclic graphs, in order to simplify graph understanding. We selected and implemented an edge bundling technique in CourseViewer. We also exemplify course curricula in which we applied this technique.
