A useful starting point for designing advanced graphical user interfaces is the visual information seeking Mantra: overview first, zoom and filter, then details on demand. But this only a in trying to understand rich varied set of visualizations that have been proposed recent years. The paper offers task by data type taxonomy with seven types (one, two, three dimensional data, temporal multi tree network data) tasks (overview, zoom, details-on-demand, relate, history, extracts).

A method for visualizing hierarchically structured information is described. The tree-map visualization technique makes 100% use of the available display space, mapping full hierarchy onto a rectangular region in space-filling manner. This efficient space allows very large hierarchies to be displayed their entirety and facilitates presentation semantic information. Tree-maps can depict both structure content hierarchy. However, approach best suited which leaf nodes are primary importance,...

ABSTRACT This paper offers new principles for visual information seeking (VIS). A key concept is to support browsing, which distinguished from familiar query composition and retrieval because of its emphasis on rapid filtering reduce result sets, progressive refinement search parameters, continuous reformulation goals, scanning identify results. VIS developed include: dynamic filters (query parameters are rapidly adjusted with sliders, buttons, maps, etc.), starfield displays...

Billions of people participate in online social activities. Most users as readers discussion boards, searchers blog posts, or viewers photos. A fraction become contributors user-generated content by writing consumer product reviews, uploading travel photos, expressing political opinions. Some move beyond such individual efforts to collaborators, forming tightly connected groups with lively discussions whose outcome might be a Wikipedia article carefully edited YouTube video. small becomes...

How can designers of programming interfaces, interactive tools, and rich social environments enable more people to be creative often?

Well-designed technologies that offer high levels of human control and computer automation can increase performance, leading to wider adoption. The Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HCAI) framework clarifies how (1) design for so as (2) understand the situations in which full or are necessary, (3) avoid dangers excessive control. methods HCAI more likely produce designs Reliable, Safe & Trustworthy (RST). Achieving these goals will dramatically while supporting self-efficacy, mastery,...

We designed, implemented and evaluated a new concept for direct manipulation of databases, called dynamic queries, that allows users to formulate queries with graphical widgets, such as sliders. By providing visualization the database search results, can find trends exceptions easily. Eighteen undergraduate chemistry students performed statistically significantly faster using interface compared two interfaces both form fill-in input method, one output all-textual output. The were used...

With the advent of structured programming and GOTO-less a method is needed to model computation in simply ordered structures, each representing complete thought possibly defined terms other thoughts as yet undefined. A which prevents unrestricted transfers control has structure closer languages amenable programming. We present an attempt at such model.

Abstract This paper suggests three motivations for the strong interest in human factors' aspects of user interfaces and reviews five design issues: command language versus menu selection, response time display rates, wording system messages, on-line tutorials, explanations help messages hardware devices. Five methods tools development are considered: participatory design, specification methods, software implementation tools, pilot studies acceptance tests evolutionary refinement based on...

We present NodeXL, an extendible toolkit for network overview, discovery and exploration implemented as add-in to the Microsoft Excel 2007 spreadsheet software. demonstrate NodeXL data analysis visualization features with a social media sample drawn from enterprise intranet network. A sequence of operations import computation statistics refinement through sorting, filtering, clustering functions is described. These reveal sociologically relevant differences in patterns interconnection among...

Hypertext users often suffer from the “lost in hyperspace” problem: disorientation too many jumps while traversing a complex network. One solution to this problem is improved authoring create more comprehensible structures. This paper proposes several tools, based on hypertext structure analysis. In systems authors are encouraged hierarchical structures, but when writing, hierarchy lost because of inclusion cross-reference links. The first part looks at ways recovering hierarchies and...

A taxonomy of tools that support the fluent and flexible use visualizations.

Treemaps, a space-filling method for visualizing large hierarchical data sets, are receiving increasing attention. Several algorithms have been previously proposed to create more useful displays by controlling the aspect ratios of rectangles that make up treemap. While these do improve visibility small items in single layout, they introduce instability over time display dynamically changing data, fail preserve order underlying and layouts difficult visually search. In addition, continuous...
