Ubigraph Lab

Working notes on 3D graph visualisation, demos, and dynamic networks

A focused reference for Ubigraph-style workflows: demos that explain layout choices, documentation for client control over a graph server, paper references that shaped the toolchain, and notes on modern substitutes when an old example will not run cleanly today.

Ubigraph

What Ubigraph is, what it shows, and how a graph server, client, and viewer fit together.

 demo panel

Demos

Walkthroughs for random graph, binary tree, and animation examples used to test layout behaviour.

 client call

Docs

Reference notes on graph creation, edge updates, and XML-RPC style client control.

 files

Downloads

Honest notes on what runs today, what does not, and what to expect on modern systems.

Paper shelf

Three reference texts that keep showing up in conversations about Ubigraph-era tooling, generic programming, and C++ template metaprogramming. Each has a short companion page on this site, with a link to the exact historical PDF route.

Demo index

How to read a graph demo, and what each example is meant to expose.

 layout pass

Random graph

What changes when you sweep edge probability from sparse to dense.

 tree

Random binary tree

Tree depth, branching, and where layered layouts start to fail.

 stream

Animation

When animated graph changes clarify behaviour, and when they mislead.

Maintenance snapshot

This site keeps a small set of pages alive around Ubigraph and graph visualisation work. Demos and docs are kept in step where possible, paper references stay where they have always been, and notes are revised when something on a page stops matching what people see in practice. The changelog records the visible changes.
