Dynamic WWW Structures in 3D

We describe a method for three-dimensional straight-line representation of dynamic directed graphs (such as parts of the World Wide Web). It has been developed on the occasion of the 1998 Graph Drawing Contest and constitutes a customized blend of techniques known from the Graph Drawing literature. Since we feel that they may be of interest to others facing similar graph drawing problems, some technical details are mixed in. The animation of the contest graph and accompanying material are available from the Journal of Graph Algorithms and Applications's Web site. Communicated by G. Liotta and S. H. Whitesides: submitted November 1998, revised October 1999.
