15)
Understanding graph change is a
difficult problem for which graph
tools often provide little support.
Use of animation to evolve a graph
from one state to another can be
viscerally compelling but difficult
to extract sensible information
from. Chapter 15, “Dynamic
Graphs,” offers several helpful
techniques for seeing how a graph
evolves over time. It also looks at
relational patterns between
entities. Examples show how
transactional aspects (which are
relatively common in graph data)
can be expressed in ways that
reveal patterns of behavior.
