Hello,
I am searching for some algorithms that will allow me to generate
graphic representation of graph.
I know that there should be some algorithm that includes gravity and
some springs or something similar.
If anybody could possibly point me where can I find information about
this kind of algorithm (as a matter of fact name would be enough
because I cannot find out how they call this algorith in english).
Thanks in advance for help.

'Graph drawing' is the term for the problem in general.
'Force directed layout' is a common term for the spring-based algorithms.
'Sugiyama' layout is one of the (old) standard algorithms, but I think only part of it was force-directed. Other parts were used to minimise edge-crossings, etc.
Cheers,
Joe
