Abstract :
The CONcrete Visual assistEd Transformation (CONVErT) framework provides facilities to generate reusable notations and compose them to form a wide variety of visualisations. With an increased number of notations in large scale visualisations, it is crucial to use advanced layout algorithms to improve understandability of such complex visualisations. This showpiece paper demonstrates how advanced layout algorithms can be integrated into the notation specifications of CONVErT to generate layouts of complex visualisations.
