JUNG — the Java Universal Network/Graph Framework--is a software library that provides a common and extendible language for the modeling, analysis, and visualization of data that can be represented as a graph or network. It is written in Java, which allows JUNG-based applications to make use of the extensive built-in capabilities of the Java API, as well as those of other existing third-party Java libraries.
This software is a translation into C++ of the excellent Webgraph library by P. Boldi and S. Vigna. The original library, written in Java, is easy to use but hampered by some requirements of the Java virtual machine. This C++ translation attempts to preserve much of the ease of use (through integration with the Boost Graph Library), but bypass requirements imposed by a virtual machine.
