slices aren't defined in the grammar yet, since i m not 100% clear on what they should do
Slices are a way to characterize a complete <graph>
over time and say something like "this graph is at that state at timestamp t
. You can imagine the scenario where a researcher is making a snapshot of a given graph at regular periods. Each snapshot would then be a different GEXF file and I would call this snapshot a slice of the global over-time network. For gephi to allow the merge of these different GEXF files it needs to know when was this snapshot taken and that's the role of the timestamp
attribute on graph
. Alternatively, we allow to characterize a slice/snapshot with an interval.
ok got it, seem that the remaining work for slices depends on the commits on the other issue. Closing this one
