Quality of diagram layout is not restricted to just the elements of one diagram and it is also not restricted to just two dimensions. Three dimensional spaces can be used to layout multiple related diagrams to give the user of the diagram a much more comprehensive view of a software system. The 3D UML Heuristic Challenge presents a workshop session that challenges the traditional methods for la...

We present an algorithm taking a Kirby diagram of closed oriented $4$-manifold to trisection the same manifold. This provides us with large number examples for diagrams $4$-manifolds since many Kirby-diagrammatic descriptions are known. That being said, does not necessarily provide particularly efficient diagrams. also extend this work non-orientable case.

in this paper, a new online robot motion planner is developed for systematically exploring unknown environâ¬ments by intelligent mobile robots in real-time applications. the algorithm takes advantage of sensory data to find an obstacle-free start-to-goal path. it does so by online calculation of the generalized voronoi graph (gvg) of the free space, and utilizing a combination of depth-first an...

1 2 Preface This note is a short introduction to Binary Decision Diagrams. It provides some background knowledge and describes the core algorithms. More details can be found in Bryant's original paper on Reduced Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams Bry866 and the survey paper Bry922. A recent extension called Boolean Expression Diagrams is described in AH977. This note is a revision of an earlier v...

Conceptual graphs are similar to entity-relationship diagrams. They are however a visual, advanced knowledge-based representation formalism based upon much richer philosophical, psychological, linguistic, and object-oriented principles. Although there is much interesting and ongoing work in the conceptual graphs arena, there is little of an introductory nature for newcomers to conceptual graphs...
