    Description / Table of Contents: Summary   Graph drawing is a new and growing area in Computer Science. It is concerned with the design, analysis, implementation and evaluation of new algorithms for aesthetically nice drawings of graphs. Through the use of some selected examples of applications, typical problems, and solutions, we would like to provide an introduction into this still relatively unknown field. And we survey activities and goals of a working group consisting of members of the universities of Halle, Köln and Passau and the Max-Planck-Institut für Informatik in Saarbrücken, that is funded by the German Science Foundation DFG under the program „Efficient Algorithms for Discrete Problems and their Applications“.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung   Das Zeichnen von Graphen ist ein junges aufblühendes Gebiet der Informatik. Es befaßt sich mit Entwurf, Analyse, Implementierung und Evaluierung von neuen Algorithmen für ästhetisch schöne Zeichnungen von Graphen. Anhand von selektierten Anwendungsbeispielen, Problemstellungen und Lösungsansätzen wollen wir in dieses noch relativ unbekannte Gebiet einführen und gleichzeitig einen Überblick über die Aktivitäten und Ziele einer von der DFG im Rahmen des Schwerpunktprogramms „Effiziente Algorithmen für Diskrete Probleme und ihre Anwendungen“ geförderten Arbeitsgruppe aus Mitgliedern der Universitäten Halle, Köln und Passau und des Max-Planck-Instituts für Informatik in Saarbrücken geben.

    Notes: Summary Background Intracranial metastases commonly complicate oncologic care affecting 140,000 patients per year in the United States. Treatment of these tumors is difficult and often unsuccessful. Hyperthermia is a treatment alternative that has shown promise in treating cancer in other areas. Therefore it was employed in an attempt to provide increased tumor control in CNS metastases. Methods This Phase I and Phase II clinical trial of interstitial hyperthermia in 13 patients with recurrent or progressive intracranial metastatic disease was undertaken to evaluate complications, delivery of heat and patient outcome. Results Feared complications of clinically significant bleeding, increased mass, or infection from the interstitial implant and treatment did not occur. The seizures which occurred in 4 patients were controlled with additional anticonvulsants. Three venous thromboembolic events were treated medically and with percutaneously placed inferior vena cava filters. The KPS of the majority of patients declined slightly with treatment but rebounded to near baseline within several months. CT scans demonstrated decrease or stabilization of tumor volumes in 7 of the 13 patients. In 4 of these patients, regression or stabilization persisted until death from nonCNS disease. Conclusions Interstitial hyperthermia therapy for intracranial metastases is technically feasible and may provide increased tumor control. In this small series, it did not cause unreasonable complications. This therapy has some positive effect, but requires study of more patients before its role is definitively known. Combining hyperthermia with brachytherapy and/or chemotherapy is being evaluated.
