The biological networks, as protein-interaction-networks are important for many aspects in life. Today biologists use the comparison of networks of different species (network alignment) to understand the networks in more detail and to understand the underlying evolution. The goal of this work is to develop a visualization software that is able to visualize network alignments and also their evolution. The presented software is the first software for such visualization tasks. It uses 3D graphics and also animations for the dynamic visualization of evolution. This work consists of a review of the Related Work, a chapter about our Graph-based Approach for Interactive Visualization of Evolving Network Alignments, an explanation of the Graph Layout Algorithm and some hints for the Software System.}, language = {en} }
