XGraph emphasizes the movement of everything flowing over graphs, representing a dynamic field where data, resources, entities, or influences flow through graph structures.

Flow analytics in social networks pinpoints key influencers, tracks information flow, and locates communication blocks. In the internet/transport systems, it ensures efficiency, durability, and growth. Within biological networks, it aids in understanding protein interactions and disease transmission. Thus, flow analytics is crucial for revealing the behavior of interconnected systems, driving the creation of sophisticated methods for analyzing graph flows in the real world.
