Scientists and engineers use numerous kinds of graph notations to model various objects in the real world and their relationships in an abstract pictorial form. However, developing a specific graph editing tool for each of these notations is often very costly in terms of time and resources. This paper outlines a design of a suitable development environment for constructing graph‐based editing tools, based on the requirements analysis of such an environment derived from a survey of more than 60 different graph notations.
