Presenting Data from Experiments in Algorithmics
MPI. Work package 5. May 2001.

Abstract: Experimental algorithmics yields large amounts of data that depends on many parameters. This paper collects a number of rules for presenting this data in concise, meaningful, understandable diagrams that have sufficiently high quality to be printed in scientific journals. The focus is on common sense rules that are frequently useful and can be easily implemented using tools such as gnuplot.
