Abstract in different language:	In this paper we propose a new graph algorithm visualizer, called JAZ (Java Algorithm visualiZer), whose main features are: (a) JAZ is basically machine-independent; (b) JAZ is a post-mortem SV system; (c) JAZ heavily uses colors and it allows to show multiple views of program executions; (d) JAZ is based on an imperative approach; (e) the interaction between the user and the system is based on the Java Application Programming Interface; (f) the main purpose of JAZ is novice classroom demonstration and algorithm development and debugging. In our opinion, JAZ is very simple to be used. The main characteristic of JAZ, however, is that it can also be used as a multi-platform distributed collaborative tool for teaching graph algorithms (over any network supporting the TCP protocol, such as Internet, or any intranet).
