949.0. "the curse of the clean desk" by HERON::BUCHANAN (and the world it runnes on wheeles) Mon Oct 17 1988 09:50
	I have a feeling that a couple of months ago I was given a paper
by someone concerning a symbolic programming environment specifically
oriented towards GRAPHS (the vertices-and-edges kind, not the trend-plotting
kind).   However, at the time, I had much to do, and no immediate use for
the tool or the paper, and so I filed the document under "lose".
	Alack the day when now I find I need such a thing for a major
math recreational project I'm involved in, and I cannot locate any details.
Help!
	What I'm looking for is "MAXYMA for graphs".   It is not CAYLEY, which
is algebra-oriented.   I understand that recent releases of CAYLEY may include
some graphical facilities, but it seems from tghe prospectus that it's mostly
automorphism-type stuff.   I'm looking for an expressive language which runs
v. fast for establishing equivalence of graphs, deciding whether one graph
contains another subgraph, other run-of-the-mill graph theory stuff.
	Anyone know?
Thanks in advance,
Andrew.

|  | 	There's an ambiguity in my request.   Let me clarify.   I'm not 
interested in graphics, or graph-plotting.   I'm interested in simple graphs.
n vertices, each unordered pair of edges either has an edge or it doesn't.
Sorry.
Andrew
