VertexSort: Network Hierarchical Structure and Randomization

Permits to apply the 'Vertex Sort' algorithm (Jothi et al. (2009) <10.1038/msb.2009.52>) to a graph in order to elucidate its hierarchical structure. It also allows graphic visualization of the sorted graph by exporting the results to a cytoscape friendly format. Moreover, it offers five different algorithms of graph randomization: 1) Randomize a graph with preserving node degrees, 2) with preserving similar node degrees, 3) without preserving node degrees, 4) with preserving node in-degrees and 5) with preserving node out-degrees.
