The AGD-Library offers a broad range of existing algorithms for
two-dimensional graph drawing and tools for implementing new
algorithms. 

The library is based on LEDA, which is a comprehensive
software platform for combinatorial and geometric computing. LEDA is
available at  the Algorithmic Solutions Software GmbH
(see http://www.algorithmic-solutions.com
  contact:  agd@algorithmic-solutions.com).
