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.
