Automatic Minimal-Height Table Layout

Sketching Slides: interactive creation and automatic solution of constrained document layout problems

The efficiency of desktop publishing is severely limited by the lack of sophisticated automatic document layout systems. State-of-the-art algorithms either require the input to be written in a description language such as HTML and LATEX, or to be a manually designed layout template. However, description languages are ill-suited to express layout problems with weak semantics and layout templates...

Specification of Diagram Editors Providing Layout Adjustment with Minimal Change

Editing diagrams conveniently requires edit operations and automatic layout tailored to the type of diagram. This necessitates a syntax-directed editor for diagrams, called diagram editor herein. We describe the basics of a generator for interactive diagram editors that offers a number of signiicant advantages over previous approaches. The foundation is a new incremental algorithm for constrain...
