ABSTRACT:
A process to increase the readability of topology diagrams and to simultaneously show multiple relationships for a large number of elements or nodes in a network. Redundant relationships or connections between nodes are systematically hidden but in such a way that the removed relationships or connections can be inferred from the remaining relationships in the diagram. As a result, diagram elements or nodes are positioned closer to respective related elements and overlapping relationship lines, or connections, in the diagram are greatly reduced.
