Recent empirical research has shown that increasing the angle of crossings reduces the effect of crossings and improves human readability [5]. In this paper, we introduce a post-processing algorithm, namely MAXCIR, that aims to increase crossing angles of circular layouts by using Quadratic Programming. Experimental results indicate that our method significantly increases crossing angles compared to the traditional equal-spacing algorithm, and that the running time is fairly negligible. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.
