The batch mode makes it possible for VisANT to handle
the network with millions of nodes and edges. As a test, we layout
the functional network downloaded from
http://www.functionalnet.org/mousenet/ using spring-embedded
relaxing method. This layout is carried out by the batch command:
layout=spring_embedded_relaxing:###,
where ### shall be replaced by any integer to indicate the number of
iterations. The big network in general requires to bigger number of
iteration. The effect of this number, as well as the startup
position of nodes, are listed below. The number for each figure
represents the iteration time while the *
indicate that the network is first laid out using circle layout,
i.e., if the * presents, the
command is:
layout=scramble
layout=spring_embedded_relaxing:###
otherwise, the
commands will be:
layout=circle
layout=spring_embedded_relaxing:###

(VisANT, data file, command file, the script to run the batch mode)
