SCCMAP(1)                   General Commands Manual                  SCCMAP(1)



NAME
       sccmap - extract strongly connected components of directed graphs

SYNOPSIS
       sccmap [-dsv] [ -ooutfile ] [ files ]

DESCRIPTION
       sccmap decomposes digraphs into strongly connected components and an
       auxiliary map of the relationship between components.  In this map,
       each component is collapsed into a node.  The resulting graphs are
       printed to standard out.  The number of nodes, edges and strongly
       connected components are printed to standard error.  sccmap is a way of
       partitioning large graphs into more manageable pieces.

OPTIONS
       The following options are supported:

       -d     Preserve degenerate components of only one node.

       -s     Do not print the resulting graphs. Only the statistics are
              important.

       -S     Just print the resulting graphs. No statistics are printed.

       -ooutput
              Prints output to the file output. If not given, sccmap uses
              stdout.

       -v     Generate additional statistics. In particular, sccmap prints the
              number of nodes, edges, connected components, and strongly
              connected components, followed by the fraction of nodes in a
              non-trivial strongly connected components, the maximum degree of
              the graph, and fraction of non-tree edges in the graph.

OPERANDS
       The following operand is supported:

       files   Names of files containing 1 or more graphs in dot format.  If
               no files operand is specified, the standard input will be used.

DIAGNOSTICS
       sccmap emits a warning if it encounters an undirected graph, and
       ignores it.
