Abstract :
ALADDIN (algorithm animation design and description using interaction) is a system for creating animations of algorithm executions with a minimal effort. To avoid the most laborious phase of producing an animation, which is programming the graphics needed in the animation, ALADDIN allows the user to design the graphics interactively with a graphical editor. An example elucidating how an animation can be designed using the system is given. Some details of the implementation of the system are examined more closely
