We consider the standard algorithm to test the upward planarity of embedded digraphs by Bertolazzi et al. [3]. We show how to improve its running time from O(n + r 2) to O(n + r 3/2 ), where r is the number of sources and sinks in the digraph.We also discuss 2 applications of this technique: finding a certificate of correctness of an implementation of our upward planarity testing algorithm; and improving the running time of getting a quasi-upward planar drawing for an embedded digraph with minimum number of bends. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2009.
