Good programs to make graphs (complex systems) in linux

[UFSJ]

Hi guys,

my questions is simple and direct. I'm new in the study of complex systems and would like to know which programs are suggested to use to build a graphs, some thing as 1500 connected points.

Thanks a lot!

In python there is networkX, which is what I used before. I don't have anything to compare it to though.

You might get more hits searching network rather than graph, because graph based models of complex dynamical systems are called complex networks rather than graphs in the literature.

What do you want to do with the graphs once you have built them? If you just want to visualise them then graphviz is the obvious tool.

theres also a third party python module called matplotlib that generated good quality charts and graphs.

This article has more modules for network diagrams.

Thanks pbuk. I'm trying this program. Actually look as very good!
