CALL FOR DEMOS/POSTERS
ACM Symposium on Software Visualization
SOFTVIS '03
June 11-13, 2003, San Diego, USA
Collocated with FCRC'03
Sponsored by ACM SIGCHI, SIGGRAPH, SIGPLAN and SIGSOFT,
and in cooperation with ACM SIGCSE.
http://www.softvis.org/softvis03
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
Software visualization encompasses the development and evaluation of
methods for graphically representing different aspects of software,
including its structure, its abstract and concrete execution, and its
evolution. The goal of this symposium is to provide a forum for
researchers from different backgrounds (HCI, software engineering,
programming languages, visualization, computer science education) to
discuss and present original research on software visualization.
SoftVis '03 is the first meeting in a planned series of biennial
conferences. Our objective is to make the SoftVis series the premier
venue for presenting all types of research on software visualization.
Submission information

We seek both demos of software visualization systems and posters about
software visualization research for a joint demo and poster session
during the conference. Authors of accepted demos should bring their
own equipment to demonstrate their system. Authors of accepted
posters should bring a poster highlighting the research. Both will be
presented during an informal session in which conference attendees
will be able to browse and discuss the projects. For students, a
special student-focused poster session will be held during the parent
FCRC conference on the evening before SoftVis begins as well.
To submit a poster or demo, you should prepare and electronically
submit a brief overview paper. Papers must be in standard ACM
2-column format and cannot exceed 2 pages in total length. Authors
should send a PDF file of their submission to stasko at cc.gatech.edu by
Friday April 18, 2003. For student posters, please indicate this
status in the email message. Informal copies of all the accepted
demo/poster papers will be distributed to the conference attendees so
this will not be an "official" publication.
Venue
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
SoftVis '03 is affiliated with the ACM Federated Computing Research
Conference, a collection of symposia occurring June 7-14 in San Diego, CA.

ACM Transactions on Applied Perception - Call for papers
(Apologies for cross-posting)
______________
Aims and scope
______________
Numerous breakthroughs in computer science have come out of the
assimilation of results from other disciplines. Recently, there has
been an increasing appreciation of the gains that can be made through
the application of findings from the field of experimental psychology.
Similarly, the latter may benefit from computational and algorithmic
advances in computer science. The purpose of ACM Transactions on
Applied Perception is to further the development of inter-disciplinary
research that crosses the boundaries between perception and computer
science disciplines such as graphics, vision, acoustics and
haptics. This journal aims to broaden the synergy between computer
science and psychology/perception by publishing top quality papers
that help to unify research in these fields. The scope of this journal
includes applications and algorithms in any area of research that
incorporates elements of perception and computer science. Topics
include, but are not limited to:
Visual:
perceptually based techniques in computer graphics,
scientific/data/information visualization, digital
imaging and computer vision.
Auditory:
auditory display and interfaces, perceptual auditory
coding, spatialized sound, speech synthesis/recognition
Haptics:
haptic rendering, haptic input and perception
Sensorimotor:
vestibular interfaces, eye/head tracking input,
gesture input, body movement input
Multimodal rendering and multimodal interaction:
Sensory integration:
____________________

Motivation & Description
The information explosion in recent years, often in the form of
information available electronically, has sparked development of a new
interdisciplinary
area of science aimed at charting, mining, analyzing, sorting, and
displaying interesting and important aspects of this knowledge and
information. Indeed,
progress in this area is critically important for the functioning of
modern society, and particularly for the growth of scientific research,
because without
such tools it has become almost impossible to find and organize relevant
information. We therefore propose a Sackler Colloquium aimed to
highlight
the many facets of this emerging field.
Information on this colloquium, as far as it is known at the present
time, may be found at the website: http://vw.indiana.edu/sackler03/.
The tentative
schedule is enclosed.
Database
A major goal of the proposed colloquium is to demonstrate and compare
different techniques, algorithms, and approaches that can be utilized to
map
knowledge domains. In order to facilitate this goal, registered
participants are eligible to utilize the so called PNAS Data Set. The
data set comprises full
text documents from the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
covering 01-07-1997 to 09-17-2002 (148 issues containing some 93,000
journal pages). The data is available on Microsoft Access 97 format.
Paper Submission & Student Packages
Due to severe space and time limitations, a large number of researchers
who carry out highly relevant research, indeed in many cases leaders in
the field,
could not be included among the list of speakers.
However, we would like to encourage these researcher to attend the
Colloquium and if possible to contribute to the colloquium by submitting
a 2-page
abstract by March 1st, 2003. The organizers will review these abstracts
and select those of quality to be presented as a poster or demonstration
during a session we have set aside for this purpose.
There will be a number of student packages available, also offering the
opportunity to present a poster or demonstration (the packages will
provide the
registration fee plus $500 support). If you have students that would
like to apply, please encourage them to send a two page abstract, and
send a
supporting statement on their behalf by March 1st, 2003.
Please submit papers as well as statements in support of students to
sackler-submit at slis.indiana.edu.
We hope you will be able to attend this colloquium, and would be pleased
if you could take part.
Sincerely,
Richard Shiffrin & Katy B=F6rner

InfoVis 2003 Call for Papers
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Changes
------------------------------------------------------------------------
New this year
* InfoVis Contest, see http://www.cs.umd.edu/hcil/iv03contest
* New paper categories (technique, system, design study,
evaluation, and model), with length decoupled from category
* InfoVis starts a half-day earlier, early afternoon on Sunday 19
October.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Introduction
------------------------------------------------------------------------
We solicit papers, posters, and contest entries for InfoVis 2003, the
ninth annual IEEE Symposium on Information Visualization. InfoVis is
the primary meeting in the field of information visualization, and is
held in conjunction with the IEEE Visualization 2003 (Vis03) conference.
Computer-based information visualization, or "infovis", centers around
helping people explore or explain data by designing interactive
software that exploits the capabilities of the human perceptual system.
The central design challenge in infovis is designing a cognitively
useful spatial mapping of a dataset that is not inherently spatial.
There are many possible visual encodings, only a fraction of which are
helpful for a given task. We draw on the intellectual history of
several traditions, including computer graphics, human-computer
interaction, cognitive psychology, semiotics, graphic design,
statistical graphics, cartography, and art. The synthesis of relevant
ideas from these fields with new methodologies and techniques made
possible by interactive computation are critical for helping people
keep pace with the torrents of data confronting them. One of the few
resources increasing faster than the speed of computer hardware is the
amount of data to be processed.
We encourage submissions of papers (31 Mar 03 deadline), interactive
posters (1 Aug 03 deadline), and InfoVis Contest entries (1 Aug 03
deadline). We encourage the use of digital video to support the
submission, particularly if part or all of the work covers interactive
techniques.
======================================================================Papers: due Mon 31 March 2003 5:00pm PST
------------------------------------------------------------------------
We solicit papers in five categories: technique, system, design study,
evaluation, and model. Although many papers might include elements of
more than one of these categories, for the purposes of reviewing you
will be asked to decide which best fits your submission.
Technique
Technique papers introduce novel techniques or algorithms that have
not previously appeared in the literature. We also welcome papers that
significantly extend techniques or algorithms that have been
previously presented, for example by scaling to datasets of much
larger size than before or by generalizing a technique to a larger
class of uses.
The technique or algorithm description provided in the paper should be
complete enough that a competent graduate student in visualization
could implement the work, and the authors should create a prototype
implementation of the methods. Relevant previous work must be
referenced, and the advantage of the new methods over it should be
clearly demonstrated. There should be a discussion of the tasks and
datasets for which this new method is appropriate, and its
limitations. Evaluation through informal or formal user studies, or
other methods, will often serve to strengthen the paper, but are not
mandatory.
Past work that would fall into this category includes: algorithms for
layout and navigation of trees, graphs, and networks; interaction
techniques for infovis; browsing and navigation techniques in large
information spaces; geometric or graphics algorithms for increased
scalability of existing techniques; and techniques for visualizing
very high dimensional (100+ D) spaces. This list is not exclusive, and
we welcome submissions in these and all other areas of infovis.
System
System papers present a blend of algorithms, technical requirements,
user requirements, and design that solves a major problem. The system
that is described is both novel and important, and it has been
implemented. The rationale for significant design decisions is
provided, and the system is compared to documented, best-of-breed
systems already in use. The comparison includes specific discussion of
how the described system differs from and is, in some significant
respects, superior to those systems. For example, the proposal may
offer substantial advancements in the performance or usability of
infovis systems, or novel capabilities. Every effort should be made to
eliminate external factors (such as advances in processor performance,
memory sizes or operating system features) that would affect this
comparison. For further suggestions, please review "How (and How Not)
to Write a Good Systems Paper" by Roy Levin and David Redell at
http://www.acm.org/sigops/advice.html, and "Empirical Methods in CS
and AI" by Toby Walsh at
http://www-users.cs.york.ac.uk/~tw/empirical.html
Design Study
Design study papers explore the choices made when applying infovis
techniques in an application area, for example relating the visual
encodings and interaction techniques to the requirements of the target
task. Although a limited amount of application domain background
information can be useful to provide a framing context in which to
discuss the specifics of the target task, the primary focus of the
case study must be the infovis content. Describing new techniques and
algorithms developed to solve the target problem will strengthen a
design study paper, but the requirements for novelty are less
stringent than in a Technique paper. The work will be judged by the
design lessons learned, and on which future contributors can build.
We invite submissions on any application area. In past years
these areas have included bioinformatics, data mining and databases,
finance and commerce, telecommunications and networking, information
retrieval from large text corpora, and computer-supported
cooperative work (CSCW). This year we particularly encourage submissions
in the application area of software engineering, a shared focus with
our Vis 03 parent conference.
Evaluation
Evaluation papers are an empirical comparative study of infovis
techniques or systems. Authors are not necessarily expected to
implement the systems used in these studies themselves; the research
contribution will be judged on the validity and importance of the
experimental results as opposed to the novelty of the systems or
techniques under study. The conference committee appreciates the
difficulty and importance of designing and performing rigorous
experiments, including the definition of appropriate hypotheses,
tasks, data sets, selection of subjects, measurement, validation and
conclusions. The goal of such efforts should be to move from mere
description of experiments, toward prediction and explanation. We do
suggest that potential authors who have not had formal training in the
design of experiments involving human subjects may wish to partner
with a colleague from an area such as psychology or human-computer
interaction who has experience with designing rigorous experimental
protocols and statistical analysis of the resulting data.
Model
Model papers present new interpretations of the foundational theory of
information visualization. Example of past work in this area are
taxonomies, extensions to Bertin's theories of visual encoding,
analysis of metaphors, perception, cognitive models, visual
comparisons and indications of causality. Implementations are usually
not relevant for papers in this category. Papers should focus on basic
advancement in our understanding of how infovis techniques complement
and exploit properties of human vision and cognition.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Papers Review Process
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The length of the paper should be commensurate with its contributions,
up to a maximum of eight (8) pages. For example, a useful idea
presented completely and concisely in four pages is more likely to be
accepted than the same idea presented in eight pages. The length limit
includes figures, which may be in color because the proceedings will
be printed in full color throughout. See the InfoVis 03 Submissions page
(http://www.infovis.org/infovis2003/submit.shtml) for details on format and
electronic submission of papers and optional accompanying digital
video.
Papers are peer-reviewed, and this year we are moving to a two-tier
reviewing model. The program committee will consist of senior
reviewers who will recruit additional external reviewers. Each paper
will be read by two senior reviewers on the program committee and two
additional external reviewers. A paper may be accepted under the
condition that its length is decreased.
All papers submitted to InfoVis03 must be original, unpublished work.
Any paper that has been previously published in equivalent or
substantially similar form by any other conference or in any other
journal will be rejected at an early stage of the review process, as
will papers that are simultaneously submitted to InfoVis03 and to any
other conference or journal. A paper is considered published if it has
appeared in a peer-reviewed journal or in published meeting
proceedings that are commercially available afterward to nonattendees.
Note that work described in the Interactive Posters or Late-Breaking
Hot Topics venues from previous InfoVis symposia is thus not
considered formally published, and you are free to submit work based
on that core (although it's unlikely to be accepted unless you've made
substantial progress since then).
Submissions are treated as confidential communications during the
review process, so submission does not constitute public disclosure of
any ideas therein. Submissions should contain no information or
materials that will be proprietary or confidential at the time of
publication (19 October 2003), and should cite no publications that
are proprietary or confidential at the time of publication.
=======================================================================Posters: due Fri 1 Aug 2003 5:00pm PST
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The interactive poster category includes both traditional posters and
demonstrations of interactive systems, either live on a laptop or
through video. We encourage both submissions of original unpublished
work and submissions showcasing systems of interest to the information
visualization community that have been presented in other venues.
Accepted posters will be included electronically on the IEEE
Visualization 2003 Conference DVD, placed on the official infovis.org
web site, and also distributed in a hardcopy compendium to all
symposium and conference attendees.
All authors of accepted interactive posters are required to bring an
explanatory hardcopy poster for display during the scheduled evening
poster session, and be available for discussion at that time. Accepted
authors who wish to also show demos of their work are encouraged to
also bring a laptop to the poster session. There will be a limited
number of stations for showing videos during the main poster
session. Authors who wish to show a live demo but cannot provide their
own machine should contact the posters chairs in advance of the
submission deadline to discuss the logistics. All authors who plan to
show live demos or video should clearly indicate this fact in their
submissions. Authors are also required to present a very brief summary
(1-3 powerpoint slides) of their interactive poster at a short preview
session earlier in the day.
Interactive poster authors must submit a 2 page summary, in two-column
SIGGRAPH format as described <a href="#papersubmit">above</a> for
papers. Those who intend to show demos are highly encouraged to also
submit an accompanying video. Clearly identify the type of your
submission by including the prefix "Interactive Poster:" in the title
of your summary.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Posters Review Process
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Each poster will be read and evaluated by both of the Posters
Chairs. Submissions will be evaluated based on whether the content
is suitable for the venue and is not a repetition of the work of
others. Authors of posters that are not accepted will receive summary
reviews of their poster from the chairs explaining the decision and
providing feedback.
See the InfoVis 03 Submissions page
(http://www.infovis.org/infovis2003/submit.shtml) for details on format and
electronic submission of posters and optional accompanying digital
video.
=======================================================================Contest: due Fri 1 Aug 2003 5:00pm PST
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Our goal in organizing this new participation category is to initiate
the development of benchmarks for information visualization, establish
a forum to promote evaluation methods, and create a new interesting
event at the conference.
For Infovis 2003 we are inviting the submissions of case studies of
the use of information visualization for pairwise comparison of trees.
Several pairs of datasets will be provided February 1st, along with a
description of the data and open-ended tasks. Contest entries will
consist of a 2-page summary, a video and accompanying materials. First
place entries will receive a prize and will have a speaking slot to
present their work during the contest session at the conference.
Second place entries will present a contest poster. (Note that
duplicate submissions should *not* be made to both the poster and
contest categories.) All accepted entry materials will be made
available online after the conference.
For more information: http://www.cs.umd.edu/hcil/iv03contest/
=======================================================================Presenter Requirements
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Submission of a paper, poster, or contest entry is considered a
commitment for at least one author to register and attend the
conference as a presenter if the work is accepted. In the case that
extraordinary circumstances arise that prevent an author from
personally presenting the work, it is the author's responsibility to
arrange in advance for an alternate presenter.
We are unable to subsidize registration or travel costs for
presenters. InfoVis is a nonprofit symposium run by volunteers, and
could not survive without the financial support of authors and
organizers alike.

There will be a tutorial on "Analyzing and Visualizing Knowledge
Domains" by
Katy Borner, Indiana University at Electronic Imaging, Santa Clara,
California,
January 23rd, 2003.
The tutorial will introduce advanced data mining and information
visualization techniques that can be used to support science and
technology management. It will demonstrate how large amounts of, e.g.,
publication, patent, and grant data can be analyzed, correlated, and
visualized to map the semantic space of researchers, publications,
funding, etc.. The resulting visualizations can be utilized to
objectively identify major research areas, experts, institutions,
grants, publications, journals, etc. in a research area of interest. In
addition, they can assist to identify interconnections, the import and
export of research between fields, the dynamics (speed of growth,
diversification) of scientific fields, scientific and social networks,
and the impact of strategic and applied research funding programs, among
others.

International Symposium on Collaborative Information Visualization
Environments, IV03-CIVE
http://www.graphicslink.demon.co.uk/IV03/CIVE.htm
See also http://vw.indiana.edu/cive03
****************************************************************************
16 - 17 - 18 July 2003
SOAS, University of London
LONDON ENGLAND
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------
Call for Papers and Participation
An increasing number of commercial, research, and educational projects
are collaborative efforts that bring together people with different
skills and expertise. Computers are evolving into mediators of
human-to-human and human-to-data interaction. Domain experts are often
spread out in space and across time zones and consultation and
collaboration has to proceed remotely instead of face-to-face.
Distributed teams need to collaborate and access shared data while some
of their team members are outside of their office environments,
presenting a new set of challenges in terms of data usage and share.
Collaborative information visualization environments (CIVEs) enable
users to interact both with visualizations of data -- e.g. access,
explore, visualize and manipulate data -- as well as enabling them to
interact with one another. Such user-user interactions may involve
referring to the data visualizations: e.g. users can chat with one
another and, in the process, be able to refer to elements of the
visualization; and/or users can annotate a part or state or even
recorded segment of the visualization so that others can see and comment
on it later. In addition, CIVEs often visualize user interactions
themselves to facilitate information access, collaboration, and
decision-making.
Currently, research on CIVEs is published in diverse subject areas such
as:
* Visual interfaces to digital libraries
* Collaborative filtering, problem solving, or learning
* Organizational memory / collective intelligence / collaborative memory
palaces
* Mobile computing
* Communicative environments
* Digital cities
* Social computing / distributed meetings
* Social visualization
* (Usability) studies of CIVEs
In organizing this symposium, we wish to bring together original CIVE
research pertinent to the design and/or evaluation of CIVEs from these
different subject areas.
OBJECTIVES
The symposium is a forum for discussion about CIVEs designed for various
user groups, application domains, and interfaces such as 2-D desktop
interfaces, 3-D virtual environments/virtual worlds, handheld devices,
etc. that utilize different information Visualization algorithms,
interaction techniques, and modes of collaboration (e.g. Synchronous,
asynchronous). Main objectives include, but are not limited to:
* Increase our understanding of the design requirements for CIVEs.
* Closely examine long-term use of particular CIVEs.
* Identify collaborative practices in collocated visualization processes
that might be supported in CIVEs.
* Gain a better understanding of architectural and infrastructure
requirements for CIVEs.
You are invited to participate in the discussion by submitting papers
and attending the Symposium.
Authors of accepted papers will be invited to submit an extended version
of their work for review and publication in a special journal issue on
this topic.
Last years papers are available online at http://vw.indiana.edu/cive02/.

Call For Papers - CMV 2003
International Conference on Coordinated &
Multiple Views in Exploratory Visualization
Associated with IV2003
http://www.cvev.org/cmv2003.html
15 July 2002, London, UK,
Conference Chair: Jonathan Roberts, University of Kent, UK
(Paper deadline 7 March 2003)
--------------------
The goal of this conference is to bring together top
practitioners who are researching in the area of coordinated and
exploratory visualization and to analyse and discuss state-of-the
art concepts and future opportunities in this area.
Over the past few years the rise of Information Visualization has
produced a diverse range of dynamic and highly interactive visual
environments. These exploratory tools enable a user to
investigate, try out scenarios and search the information and
visual space to generate better hypothesis and develop a better
understanding of the underlying information. Such investigative
environments often utilize many different views of the same data,
so the user understands the information from different
perspectives; the views are also tightly coupled together to
allow rapid coordinated investigation and exploration.
Original papers are solicited in the area of coordinated and
exploratory visualization. In particular we encourage papers
detailing novel architectures, formal models, applications and
in-depth reviews.
Example topics include, but are not limited to:
* Multiple view techniques (including multiform views and
multiple representations)
* Coordinated views, tight coupling, linked views
* Dynamic and rapid interactive visualization techniques
* Formal models (covering appropriate topics such as
coordination and rapid investigation)
* Multiple views for Interactive steering
* Visualization management for view explosion
* Data transformation and re-expression for exploratory
visualization
* Exploratory visualization methods/algorithms/tools
* Novel exploratory visualization architectures
* Visual query languages for exploratory visualization
* Case studies and applications of coordinated and
multiple views
* Reviews and surveys of related literature
* Spreadsheet based visualization techniques
* Possible application areas such as (but not limited to):
GeoVisualization; Mathematical and Statistical exploration;
Bioinformatics; Medical visualization; web site data; web
browsing strategies; Astronomical data
Submission Instructions
-----------------------
Please prepare your submission (maximum 12 pages) according to
the conference guidelines found at
http://www.cvev.org/cmv2003/submission.html
* Accepted papers will appear in the proceedings, which will be
published by the IEEE Computer Society.
* Best papers will be invited to submit to a Special Issue on
"Coordinated and Multiple Views in Exploratory Visualization"
of the Information Visualization Journal (Palgrove/Macmillan)

CALL FOR PAPERS
SPIE's 17th Annual International Symposium on Aerospace/Defense Sensing,
Simulation, and Controls
Enabling Technology for Simulation Science VII Conference
22-25 April 2003
Gaylord Palms Resort, Orlando, Florida
Dear Simulationists (and managers of same):
>From 22-25 April 2003, there will be a conference called "Enabling
Technology for Simulation Science VII", as part of SPIE's 17th Annual
International Symposium on Aerospace/Defense Sensing, Simulation, and
Controls; at the beautiful Gaylord Palms Resort in Orlando Florida.
Inaugurated in 1997, it marked the first appearance of a conference solely
devoted to basic research in those technology areas that enhance, and in
some cases, revolutionize the way we configure, execute and analyze the
results of simulations.
Many of you have been involved in our conference from the beginning; but for
some of you this is the first you're hearing about it. Well, we'd like to
tell you all about it... but we're late. Very late. Most of the deadlines
on all published announcements of the conference have passed. The
coordinators of the SPIE Conference have requested that we provide them with
a completed schedule for the Enabling Technologies Conference by early
November. Despite all that, we believe we can do it... with your help.
We are particularly interested in presentations regarding Information
Visualization. If you have an interest in presenting a paper, chairing a
session, defining a panel, workshop, etc., *please* contact us so that we
can start coordinating with you and penciling in anticipated sessions.
Perhaps you and some colleagues are performing similar research; such that
together you'd form a focused session. Also, if you are aware of anyone
else -- either individuals, or other M&S research organizations -- who might
be interested in participating, please inform him/her that time is of the
essence. We could use all the help we can get in putting together the
conference program, especially this late in the game.
Now for some of the details...
Conference: Enabling Technologies for Simulation Science VII
(http://www.spie.org/conferences/calls/03/or/conferences/index.cfm?fuseactio
n=3DOR29)
Where: Gaylord Palms Resort, Orlando FL
(http://www.gaylordhotels.com/gaylordpalms/splash.cfm)
When: 22-25 April 03
We strongly encourage you to submit your abstract via the link on the
conference web site
(http://www.spie.org/conferences/calls/03/or/conferences/index.cfm?fuseactio
n=3DOR29). In that we are so late in finalizing this program, we request that
you also send your abstract and contact information to us by email. If you
wish to participate, please submit your abstract by Wednesday, 06 November.
Remember, camera ready manuscripts aren't due until March 2002, so, for now,
the abstract (and your contact information) is what we need to focus on.
Suggested topics are on Page 1 of the attached Call for Papers (or feel free
to suggest your own); instructions for submitting an abstract are on Page 2.
Last years' Conference Program can be found at:
http://www.if.afrl.af.mil/tech/conferences/ModSim/ETConfVIb.html
We appreciate your time and professional contribution toward this much
needed and specialized conference.
Your Conference Chairs,
Alex & Dawn

Announcement!!
In the Intelligent User Interfaces department at DFKI, Germany
(www.dfki.de) we
developed a tool called the "MAUT Machine", based on treemaps for the
visualization
of an electronic product catalogue and MAUT/AHP (see decision theory) to
recommend the
products that best suit the user preferences.
Whereas the use of treemaps for displaying a product catalogue isn't new
(see the Honeycomb product at
http://www.http://www.hivegroup.com/) the strengh of our prototype is
the combination of treemaps and
the preferences/products matchmaking algorithm because the user can
directly see how well (score between 0 and 1)
the products fulfill the different interests of the user.
Technical details:
It can be used with various application domains (cars database, travel,
etc) and integrate with any relational database.
Completely written in java it runs as an applet that interacts with
servlets running on a tomcat container.
The Treemaps layout used is based on the work from Frederic Vernier as
described in "Modifiable treemaps containing
variable-shaped units"(Extended Abstracts of the IEEE Information
Visualization 2000)
There is an online demo available at
http://www2.dfki.de:8080/mautmachine/html/index.html as well as a short
paper describing the theoretical background needed to use it.
Any comment or suggestions are welcomed.
Best regards

=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
Software visualization encompasses the development and evaluation of
methods for graphically representing different aspects of software,
including its structure, its abstract and concrete execution, and its
evolution. The goal of this symposium is to provide a forum for
researchers from different backgrounds (HCI, software engineering,
programming languages, visualization, computer science education) to
discuss and present original research on software visualization.
SoftVis '03 is the first meeting in a planned series of biennial
conferences. Our objective is to make the SoftVis series the premier
venue for presenting all types of research on software visualization.

intelligence and human-computer-interaction to support a wide range of
users, from novices to experts; to support a wide range of tasks and
task environments; and to exploit a wide range of platforms, from
traditional systems to mobile devices and novel interaction paradigms.
The International Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces is the
principal international forum for reporting outstanding research and
development in intelligent user interfaces. IUI '03 solicits
submissions of original papers, posters, and system demonstrations on
significant progress and new directions in all aspects of intelligent
user interfaces. In addition to showcasing methods for intelligently
reasoning and adapting to fit user needs, IUI '03 aims to highlight
interfaces whose focus goes beyond rational "intelligence" to address
psychological concerns such as emotion, personality, and motivation.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Adaptive hypermedia
- Affective interfaces
- Conversational interfaces
- Evaluations of implemented systems
- Intelligent information and knowledge management systems
- Intelligent support for pervasive computing
- Intelligent systems for multimedia presentation
- Intelligent visualization tools
- Interface agents
- Interfaces for the semantic web
- Knowledge-based approaches to user interface design
- Multi-modal interfaces
- Novel application-specific interfaces and interactions
- Novel interaction paradigms
- Personalization and adaptation of behavior
- Proactive and agent-based paradigms for user interaction
- Social intelligence in user interfaces
- Support for collaboration in multi-user environments
- User modeling for intelligent interfaces
- User studies of relevant techniques

Subject: XmdvTool software release
XmdvTool Version 5.0
now available for free download
http://davis.wpi.edu/xmdv
XmdvTool is a software package developed at Worcester Polytechnic Institute
for
the visual exploration of multivariate data sets. Freely available since
1994,
Xmdv supports a wide range of visualization techniques (parallel
coordinates,
scatterplot matrices, glyphs, and dimensional stacking) and interactive
navigation and selection tools. Users can view all their data at once or,
for
large data sets, hierarchically cluster the data and explore it at multiple
resolutions. The system, implemented using OpenGL and Tcl/Tk, will compile
and run on both Windows and Unix platforms (build tools are provided for
each).
New features provided in Version 5.0 include:
* Expanded data importation - accepts data from files or Oracle databases
* New user interface
* Enhanced zooming in all displays
* Structure-based distortion in parallel coordinates and scatterplot
displays
* Built-in clustering algorithm for hierarchical visualization/exploration
* Functions for screen capture and saving data selections to files
* Improved rendering speed
* Expanded Help menu
* Auxiliary tools for data clustering and importing Excel spreadsheets
For questions regarding XmdvTool, please e-mail Matt Ward at matt at cs.wpi.edu
and/or visit our web site at http://davis.wpi.edu/xmdv.

The posters program offers a unique opportunity to showcase
work-in-progress, student projects, or non-traditional visualization
research. Posters will be displayed in a special one hour session
before as well as during the three hours conference reception on
Wednesday. This casual setting will allow the presenters to have
one-on-one dialogue with attendees and also to control the pace and
level of the presentations.
Poster submissions should focus on work that has produced new or
exciting ideas or findings. Case studies in all areas of science,
engineering, and medicine are also welcome. Submissions will be
reviewed by a panel of experts in the field. Review criteria include
contribution of the work to the visualization community, validity of
the results, originality of the work, and clarity of presentation.
To submit a poster proposal, prepare a two-page extended abstract in
ASCII text or PDF and email it to Kwan-Liu Ma (ma at cs.ucdavis.edu). The
authors are also encouraged to submit a preliminary PDF or Powerpoint
version of the poster. Complete contact information must be provided
with the submission. A one-page abstract of each accepted poster,
along with supporting materials, will be included in the conference
DVD.
For more information contact Kwan-Liu Ma (ma at cs.ucdavis.edu).
NEW: Interactive Demonstrations Lab (Deadline: June 28, 2002)
The Interactive Demonstrations Lab is designed to let conference
attendees interact with presenters and each other on an individual
basis. We strongly encourage the conference paper and poster
presenters, as well as contributors of ongoing work which is not in
the conference technical sessions to participate in the Interactive
Demonstrations Lab. The demo room will have a variety of workstations
on which contributors and attendees can install their materials and
visualization systems for attendees' experimentation and
enjoyment. The demo room will be open throughout the whole week,
Sunday to Friday. This is a unique opportunity for conference
attendees to interface directly with conference contributors. Please
come visit the Interactive Demonstrations Lab while you are at
Vis2002!
To participate in the Interactive Demonstrations Lab, please send your
demo proposals via email to hwshen at cis.ohio-state.edu no later than

BACKGROUND ON GI2Vis ADVANCED R&D Program
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
GI2Vis has been developed under ARDA's guidance and direction by
representatives from a number of Intelligence Community Agencies. NIMA has
agreed to issue the solicitation for GI2Vis. The evaluation of white papers
and proposals, the selection of awardees, the execution of the resulting
contracts, and the overall management of GI2Vis will also be accomplished
jointly by NIMA and other Intelligence Community Agencies under the guidance
and direction of ARDA.
While Phase II of the GI2Vis R&D Program continues many of
the research topics and areas of interest established in Phase I, Phase II
is a new solicitation and as such stands on its own. All Phase II contract
awards will be made to Offerors who submit proposals to this current BAA
solicitation and who are selected for award based upon the government's
evaluation of all submitted optional white papers and full proposals. No
Phase I contracts will be carried over into Phase II.
Phase II of the GI2Vis R&D Program, with a performance period of 24 months,
will be devoted to in-depth research within the three GI2Vis topics of
interest listed below and described in far more detail in Part II, Section 5
of the GI2Vis BAA identified above. Innovative ideas that address the
following research areas of interest are encouraged:
1. Integration and Representation of Disparate and Large
Information Sources
2. Maximizing Visualization Effectiveness and Facilitating
Visualization Use;
3. Visualization of Tacit Knowledge.
ARDA believes that Information Visualization has high
potential to be a powerful force multiplier within a number of distinct
analysis and reporting functions used by all types of Intelligence Community
Analysts across the entire spectrum of the Intelligence Community. But for
any number of reasons the high potential that information visualization
appears to tantalizingly offer has not yet been fully realized. ARDA does
not believe that there is a single, simple, elegant way to correct this
situation. Rather ARDA believes that significant, marked progress can be
achieved towards achieving this potential by focusing advanced R&D
activities against several key, underlying roadblocks to this progress.
ARDA's GI2Vis R&D Program has been established to focus on these selected
areas of Information Visualization on behalf of the Intelligence Community.
The Phase II GI2Vis Program BAA document describes three similar, yet
distinct "Analytic Uses of Information Visualization" that ARDA and the
GI2Vis Program have identified within the Intelligence Community that will
focus and drive the research that will conducted throughout the GI2Vis
Program. It is within the scope and context of these three analytic uses
that the technical problem descriptions of the three research areas, that
are identified above and that are described in more detail in the BAA, need
to be interpreted and understood by potential offerors of technical
proposals developed and submitted in response to this BAA.
The three Analytic Uses of Information Visualization that
ARDA and the GI2Vis Program have identified are:
Exploration of Massive, Complex, Heterogeneous Data
(Or more simply "Exploration")
*******************************************
The goal of this use of visualization is to more effectively and efficiently
assist the Analyst is performing varying degrees of undirected knowledge
discovery against potentially unknown data sources that may be massive,
diverse, and/ or complex. In this environment, the hope is that Analysts
will recognize the importance of information and knowledge when they see it.
"I'll know it when I see it".
Deep Analysis of Relevant, Related, Topical Information
(Or more simply "Deep Analysis")
*******************************************
The starting assumption in this use of visualization is that the Analyst, by
one means or another, has accumulated a manageable collection of information
that he or she believes is relevant or otherwise related to the current
intelligence requirement that the Analyst is currently working on. The goal
of the Analyst at this stage is to discover and understand how the
individual pieces of information that he or she is starting with fit
together in a larger mosaic. The hope is that information visualization will
make this process far more effective and efficient from the Analyst's
perspective.
Presentation of Intelligence Analysis Results to Senior Decision
Makers/Intelligence Community Customers (Or more simply "Presentation")
*******************************************
In this case the Analyst has completed his or her analysis of the data and
information associated with a given intelligence requirement to a sufficient
level that reportable intelligence results are now available. The hope is
that more formal information visualization presentations will make this
reporting function far more effective and efficient particularly when
complex, detailed intelligence results involving potentially alternative
scenarios/analyses need to be presented in a succinct, yet comprehensive
manner.

About the Symposium
Increasing amounts of data and information and the availability of fast
digital network access (e.g., the World Wide Web) have created a demand
for querying, accessing, processing, retrieving, and presenting
information and data. Unlike most scientific numerical data, information
is quite often abstract having no naturally occurring physical form or
representation. Information Visualization involves the conversion of
the abstract into concrete visual representations and building user
interfaces supporting tasks such as searching, discovery,
identification, and data mining. This involves using among others
computer graphics and imaging techniques. Information visualization is
an increasingly important research and development area and is crucial
for the success of the information revolution. Effective visualization,
information design & presentation will enable users from all walks of
life to use the information highway easily and efficiently.
They are however some road blocks to the success of information
technology. They include
- Distributed visualization and collaboration
- Visualizing massive 3D and 4D dataset in real and virtual environment
- Visualization of large museum collections
- Effective visualizations, presentations and designs which will enable
users to use information technology easily and efficiently
- Geo-spatial data visualization
- Network-centric visualization
- Data mining
- Visualization in virtual laboratories
The workshop on "Information Visualization, Presentation, and Design"
will take place on 10-12 July 2002 at the Museum National d'Histoire
Naturelle in Paris. The audience will consist some of the most active
and well-known researchers and developers in Information Visualization,
Presentation, and Design from Europe, U.S., Canada, Asia and Latin
America. The participants will discuss the state-of-the art of these
important technologies and arts, what are the future directions that are
needed for research and development and for real-world implementations.
The Workshop will consist of invited talks, short papers, demonstrations
and posters in the following sessions:
- Information visualization in Museum collection
- Distributed visualization and collaboration
- Visualizing massive 3D and 4D dataset in real and virtual environment
- Geospatial data visualization
- Network-centric visualization
- Visualization in data mining application
- Visualization in virtual laboratories
- What storytelling can do for information visualization?
- Information presentation and design issues
The workshop will be supported by CODATA, the French Ministry for
Industry, and by Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle, Paris and is in
cooperation with IEEE Computer Society Task force on Human Centered
Information Systems.

About the Symposium
Increasing amounts of data and information and the availability of fast
digital network access (e.g., the World Wide Web) have created a demand
for querying, accessing, processing, retrieving, and presenting
information and data. Unlike most scientific numerical data, information
is quite often abstract having no naturally occurring physical form or
representation. Information Visualization involves the conversion of
the abstract into concrete visual representations and building user
interfaces supporting tasks such as searching, discovery,
identification, and data mining. This involves using among others
computer graphics and imaging techniques. Information visualization is
an increasingly important research and development area and is crucial
for the success of the information revolution. Effective visualization,
information design & presentation will enable users from all walks of
life to use the information highway easily and efficiently.
They are however some road blocks to the success of information
technology. They include
- Distributed visualization and collaboration
- Visualizing massive 3D and 4D dataset in real and virtual environment
- Visualization of large museum collections
- Effective visualizations, presentations and designs which will enable
users to use information technology easily and efficiently
- Geo-spatial data visualization
- Network-centric visualization
- Data mining
- Visualization in virtual laboratories
The workshop on "Information Visualization, Presentation, and Design"
will take place on 10-12 July 2002 at the Museum National d'Histoire
Naturelle in Paris. The audience will consist some of the most active
and well-known researchers and developers in Information Visualization,
Presentation, and Design from Europe, U.S., Canada, Asia and Latin
America. The participants will discuss the state-of-the art of these
important technologies and arts, what are the future directions that are
needed for research and development and for real-world implementations.
The Workshop will consist of invited talks, short papers, demonstrations
and posters in the following sessions:
- Information visualization in Museum collection
- Distributed visualization and collaboration
- Visualizing massive 3D and 4D dataset in real and virtual environment
- Geospatial data visualization
- Network-centric visualization
- Visualization in data mining application
- Visualization in virtual laboratories
- What storytelling can do for information visualization?
- Information presentation and design issues
The workshop will be supported by CODATA, the French Ministry for
Industry, and by Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle, Paris and is in
cooperation with IEEE Computer Society Task force on Human Centered
Information Systems.

visual presentation of and interaction with abstract information
spaces and structures to facilitate their rapid assimilation and
understanding. Original papers are solicited in all areas of
information visualization. In addition, we are encouraging submissions
on bioinformatics, following the bio-visualization theme of our parent
conference, Vis2002. In particular, the symposium is interested in all
aspects of abstract visualization of digital biology information.
Topics include:
* Bioinformatics visualization
* Browsing and navigation methods
* Data structures and models underlying visualization
* Empirical studies of information visualization techniques
* Graph / network visualizations
* Information presentation as storytelling
* Interactive techniques for information visualization
* Information visualization for heterogeneous audiences
* Multi-dimensional information visualization
* Visual data mining
* Visualization and knowledge discovery
* Visualization for mobile computing
* Visualization in CSCW
* Visualization applications in areas such as
o Algorithms
o Commerce and financial systems
o Complex information
o Internet and WWW
o Mobile computing
o Search results
o Textual information
InfoVis 2002 Full Papers (due March 29, 2002)
Full papers should be at most 8 printed pages. Full papers present
previously unpublished, original results. Papers submitted as full
papers may, at the discretion of the program co-chairs, be invited for
publication and presentation as short papers.
InfoVis 2002 Short Papers (due March 29, 2002)
Short papers should be at most 4 printed pages. The short paper
category is intended for two submission types: a) case studies
describing how information visualization has contributed to working
applications in real-life environments and b) technical notes that,
though novel and of interest to the community, do not warrant a full
paper submission. Clearly identify the type of your submission by
including the prefix "Case Study:" or "Technical Note:" in the title
of your short paper submission.
InfoVis 2002 Interactive Posters (due July 1, 2002)
The interactive poster category includes both traditional posters and
demonstrations of interactive systems, either live on a laptop or
through video. We encourage both submissions of original unpublished
work and submissions showcasing systems of interest to the information
visualization community that have been presented in other venues.
All authors of accepted interactive posters are required to bring an
explanatory hardcopy poster for display during the scheduled evening
poster session, and be available for discussion at that time. Accepted
authors who wish to also show demos of their work are encouraged to
also bring a laptop to the poster session. Authors are required to
present a very brief summary of their interactive poster at a short
preview session earlier in the day. There will be a limited number of
stations for showing videos during that session. Authors who wish to
show a live demo but cannot provide their own machine should contact
the posters chairs in advance of the submission deadline to discuss
the logistics. All authors who plan to show live demos or video should
clearly indicate this fact in their submissions.
Interactive poster authors must submit a 2 page extended abstract, and
those who intend to show demos are highly encouraged to also submit an
accompanying video. Clearly identify the type of your submission by
including the prefix "Interactive Poster:" in the title of your
extended abstract.
Submissions:
Please prepare your submission according to the IEEE CS Press Author
Guidelines at <http://www.computer.org/cspress/instruct.htm>, with the
understanding that the papers proceedings will be printed in full
color. Submissions longer than the page limits will not be
considered. Papers should be submitted electronically as PDF (Adobe
portable document format) files. Details of the submission process
will be posted on the InfoVis 2002 web site.
Submissions to any of the InfoVis 2002 categories may be accompanied
by supporting digital movies with a maximum length of 5 minutes.
Accompanying movies will assist in the review process. Movies viewable
with QuickTime Player or Windows Media Player should be submitted
electronically.
Publication:
Accepted long and short papers will be published in an
archival-quality proceedings directly from revised PDF files submitted
by the authors. The proceedings will be printed with a high-
resolution full color printing process. The accepted papers, along
with supporting media, will also be included in the conference
DVD. The IEEE Computer Society will distribute the proceedings.
Extended abstracts of accepted interactive posters will be distributed
in the black and white InfoVis 2002 Interactive Posters Compendium,
using revised PDF files submitted by the authors. The Posters
Compendium will be available only at the conference. Abstracts and
accompanying material such as digital movies will also be made
available from the conference web site.

http://vcg.iei.pi.cnr.it/egrw02.htm
Aims and Scope:
Following twelve successful workshops in the last twelve years,
the 13th Eurographics Workshop on Rendering will take place in
Pisa, Italy. It is organised by the Visual Computing Group, part of
the Information Technology CNR Institute, in association with
Eurographics, in the context of the Eurographics Working Group on
Rendering Activities. The workshop is well established as a major
international forum for the exchange of ideas and experiences in
the area of rendering algorithms and techniques.
Topics:
Submissions are invited in (but not limited to) the following
areas:
- Local illumination and reflection models and methods (including
BRDF measurement)
- Global illumination methods (Monte Carlo, finite element
techniques)
- Sampling, filtering, and anti-aliasing
- Visibility algorithms
- Human perception and error measures
- Texture models, analysis, and synthesis
- Non-polygonal rendering (Point-based, image-based)
- Systems and software architectures for rendering
- New rendering hardware and new uses of existing hardware
- Experimental or practice-and-experience comparative studies of
existing methods
- Rendering solutions for virtual/augmented reality and
interactive systems
- Inverse rendering and computer vision related algorithms
- Real-time rendering
- Non-photorealistic rendering
Research and development driven by real-world applications are
encouraged. A short paper category (6 page limit) is available in
addition to full papers (12 page limits). The category of submitted
papers will be decided based on the reviewing results, but authors
may submit papers specifically to the short paper category. As has
been the tradition in previous workshops, the presentation format
will allow for ample discussion time. The number of participants will
be limited to 100. Internationally known speakers will give invited
lectures.
In addition to both short and full papers, this year authors may also
submit posters containing preliminary results or speculative
ideas. These posters will be peer-reviewed and will be appear at the
workshop, but will not be printed in the final ACM Press workshop
proceedings.
Authors of accepted papers may also enter a competition to produce a
cover image for the preliminary proceedings distributed at the
workshop. Details of the competition may be found on the workshop web
site.
Important Dates in the Year 2002 are:
Wednesday, March 27 Electronic abstract submission deadline
Friday, March 29 Electronic paper/poster submission deadline
Monday, April 1 Submission deadline for videos
Monday, May 13 Author notification
Saturday, June 1 Camera-ready copy deadline
June 26 - 28 Workshop
Submission Procedure:
NOTE: ALL SUBMISSIONS THIS YEAR ARE ELECTRONIC.
Authors are requested to submit (via email) an abstract for their
paper or poster by Wednesday March 27th 2002 to the following
address:
egwr02 at cs.man.ac.uk
Authors will then receive further information by email regarding the
electronic submission of their papers and posters (in PDF or
Postscript format) to the workshop ftp site. Authors experiencing
problems with electronic submission of contributions should contact
the program co-chairs directly.
The abstract submission email should contain the names and
institutions of all authors, contact information of one contact
author (name, e-mail, postal address, phone and fax numbers), and the
(not necessarily final) title and abstract of the submission.
Courier-service mail will be used only for those submissions that the
co-chairs find unusable, and for videos accompanying papers. In the
latter case, one paper copy of the paper should be sent along with
five copies of the accompanying videotape or CD-ROM to one of the two
program co-chairs. In the case of videotapes an effort should be made
to include the segment in both PAL and NTSC on the same VHS tape, to
ensure that it can be seen by all reviewers. An authors toolkit
including LaTeX and MS Word style files is available from the
conference Web page. Submissions missing the deadline will be
considered with reduced priority, to the extent practical within
the short review cycle.

IEEE SYMPOSIUM ON INFORMATION VISUALIZATION (INFOVIS 2002)
Sponsored by IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Visualization
and Graphics
October 28 - 29, 2002 * Park Plaza Hotel * Boston, MA
http://www.infovis.org/infovis2002
The IEEE Symposium on Information Visualization is the premier meeting
in the emerging field of information visualization, involving the
visual presentation of and interaction with abstract information
spaces and structures to facilitate their rapid assimilation and
understanding. Original papers are solicited in all areas of
information visualization. In addition, we are encouraging submissions
on bioinformatics, following the bio-visualization theme of our parent
conference, Vis2002. In particular, the symposium is interested in all
aspects of abstract visualization of digital biology information.
Topics include:
* Bioinformatics visualization
* Browsing and navigation methods
* Data structures and models underlying visualization
* Empirical studies of information visualization techniques
* Graph / network visualizations
* Information presentation as storytelling
* Interactive techniques for information visualization
* Information visualization for heterogeneous audiences
* Multi-dimensional information visualization
* Visual data mining
* Visualization and knowledge discovery
* Visualization for mobile computing
* Visualization in CSCW
* Visualization applications in areas such as
o Algorithms
o Commerce and financial systems
o Complex information
o Internet and WWW
o Mobile computing
o Search results
o Textual information
InfoVis 2002 Full Papers (due March 29, 2002)
Full papers should be at most 8 printed pages. Full papers present
previously unpublished, original results. Papers submitted as full
papers may, at the discretion of the program co-chairs, be invited for
publication and presentation as short papers.
InfoVis 2002 Short Papers (due March 29, 2002)
Short papers should be at most 4 printed pages. The short paper
category is intended for two submission types: a) case studies
describing how information visualization has contributed to working
applications in real-life environments and b) technical notes that,
though novel and of interest to the community, do not warrant a full
paper submission. Clearly identify the type of your submission by
including the prefix "Case Study:" or "Technical Note:" in the title
of your short paper submission.
InfoVis 2002 Interactive Posters (due July 1, 2002)
The interactive poster category includes both traditional posters and
demonstrations of interactive systems, either live on a laptop or
through video. We encourage both submissions of original unpublished
work and submissions showcasing systems of interest to the information
visualization community that have been presented in other venues.
All authors of accepted interactive posters are required to bring an
explanatory hardcopy poster for display during the scheduled evening
poster session, and be available for discussion at that time. Accepted
authors who wish to also show demos of their work are encouraged to
also bring a laptop to the poster session. Authors are required to
present a very brief summary of their interactive poster at a short
preview session earlier in the day. There will be a limited number of
stations for showing videos during that session. Authors who wish to
show a live demo but cannot provide their own machine should contact
the posters chairs in advance of the submission deadline to discuss
the logistics. All authors who plan to show live demos or video should
clearly indicate this fact in their submissions.
Interactive poster authors must submit a 2 page extended abstract, and
those who intend to show demos are highly encouraged to also submit an
accompanying video. Clearly identify the type of your submission by
including the prefix "Interactive Poster:" in the title of your
extended abstract.
Submissions:
Please prepare your submission according to the IEEE CS Press Author
Guidelines at <http://www.computer.org/cspress/instruct.htm>, with the
understanding that the papers proceedings will be printed in full
color. Submissions longer than the page limits will not be
considered. Papers should be submitted electronically as PDF (Adobe
portable document format) files. Details of the submission process
will be posted on the InfoVis 2002 web site.
Submissions to any of the InfoVis 2002 categories may be accompanied
by supporting digital movies with a maximum length of 5 minutes.
Accompanying movies will assist in the review process. Movies viewable
with QuickTime Player or Windows Media Player should be submitted
electronically.
Publication:
Accepted long and short papers will be published in an
archival-quality proceedings directly from revised PDF files submitted
by the authors. The proceedings will be printed with a high-
resolution full color printing process. The accepted papers, along
with supporting media, will also be included in the conference
DVD. The IEEE Computer Society will distribute the proceedings.
Extended abstracts of accepted interactive posters will be distributed
in the black and white InfoVis 2002 Interactive Posters Compendium,
using revised PDF files submitted by the authors. The Posters
Compendium will be available only at the conference. Abstracts and
accompanying material such as digital movies will also be made
available from the conference web site.
For detailed information concerning submission, please see the
symposium web site, or email infovis at vis.computer.org.

=======================================================> POST 1
From: Pearl Pu Faltings [Pearl.Pu at epfl.ch]
Subject: references on visualizing resources and resource management?
I am writing a paper on visualizing resources and resource management.
Please send me references of your work or works that you know of besides
the published articles on telecom network visualization (Beck and Eick
and similar works), energy networks (Overbye and Weber), and our own
work on visualizing resource allocation (Pu and Melissagos).
By resources, I consider the following three types:
1. Consumable - e.g., money, fuel, and energy.
2. Reusable/non-sharable -- like most equipment, aircraft, etc. They are
unavailable only while being used by a particular consumer and are
otherwise available. These resources are non-divisible and their
capacity must be wholly allocated to a single consumer.
3. Reusable/synchronized-sharable --- these resources can be
simultaneously allocated to multiple consumers but only in a temporally
synchronized manner, e.g., communication bandwidths.
4. Reusable/independently-sharable --- e.g., parking lot. They can be
simultaneouly allocated to multiple consumers and used without
synchronization.

Preliminary Call for Participation
Young Investigator's Forum in Virtual Reality (YoungVR, 2001)
December 18-20, 2001
KAIST, Daejon, Korea
vrrc.kaist.ac.kr/yvr2001
Call for Participation
The Virtual Reality Research Center (VRRC) in Korea
(http://vrrc.kaist.ac.kr/) invites advanced graduate students (or any
individual with similar credentials) around the world to participate
in a forum to discuss the future of virtual reality. VRRC,
established within KAIST, is one of the highly prestegious government
supported centers in Korea that specializes in the VR research. This
year's forum will mark its first occurrence, and will also be first of
its kind, specifically inviting only advanced graduate students for
free form discussion on the future directions of virtual reality and
related technologies. The forum hopes to provide an execellent
opportunity for the young researchers of VR around the world to
present, discuss, and cultivate new ideas.
An extended abstract of 2000 words are solicited on all aspects of
virtual reality, in particular on the future visions of VR and related
technologies. The main contributor of the submission must be a
graduate student, preferably who has finished one's research proposal
toward one's PhD degree. The nature of the forum is designed to be
small-scale, free form, higly interactive, and intensive, thus we will
only accept around 10 submissions. All accepted participants will be
provided with all or partial expenses for travel and lodging (roundtrip
plane tickets to Korea, and room/meal). For detailed format of the
forum, visit the forum web site at vrrc.kaist.ac.kr/yvr2001.
The first two days will be consisted of presentations and discussion
rounds and during the final day, a social event is planned as an
opportunity for the participants to get to know one another more.
Submission deadline for the extended abstracts is October 1, 2001 with
notification of acceptance by November 1, 2001. Please submit
abstracts (or inquiries) to: Gerry J. Kim at POSTECH, Korea
(gkim at postech.ac.kr). The official language is English.

Subject: Browse your digital photos with PhotoMesa 1.1
Visualize your photos with treemaps using a Zoomable User Interface!
A new photo browser called PhotoMesa is now available. It supports image
browsing in a family environment. It requires no organization of photos to
get started, and supports a novel and easy-to-use zoomable interface. By
showing many directories of photos at once, organized using a novel
variation of the "treemap" algorithm, it supports rapid browsing. PhotoMesa
requires only a set of images on disk, and does not require the user to add
any metadata, or manipulate the images at all before browsing, thus making
it easy to get started with existing images.
While other image management systems have focused on annotating and
searching, PhotoMesa concentrates on browsing. The interface lets you
concentrate on the images, without having to manage scrollbars, menus, or
pop-up windows. It also lets you group images by available metadata, such
as directory location, image creation date, and words in the filename. We
have built it intending it to be useful in informal situations, such as
looking at photos together among family members. Others have found it
useful as a way of finding what is on their hard disk.

Subject: Info Vis tutorial - October 2
Full-day Seminar: Information Visualization
Ben Shneiderman and Catherine Plaisant
Human-Computer Interaction Laboratory, University of Maryland
Monday, October 1, 2001, 8:30am-5:30pm, Cambridge, MA
Part of "User Interface 6 East" http://www.uiconf.com/
Information visualization was mostly a dream 5 years ago, but it's now a
reality. The latest generation of visual data mining tools and animated GUIs
take advantage of human perceptual skills to produce striking results. This
tutorial by two of the field's leading researchers will show examples of
commercially successful uses of information visualization technology in
today's web and software interfaces, plus recent research breakthroughs and
hints of what's to come.
Information visualization techniques empower users to perceive important
patterns in a large amount of data, identify areas that need further
scrutiny, and make sophisticated decisions. The Visual Information-Seeking
Mantra is to "overview first, zoom and filter, then give details on demand."
But looking at information is only a start. Users also need to manipulate
and query the data, using real-time tools to zoom, filter, and relate the
information - and undo if they make a mistake.
You may be familiar with SmartMoney.com's "Map of the Market" that uses our
Treemap visualization to graphically represent US stock market data and show
overall trends and exceptions. You may also be familiar with Spotfire's
success story in pharmaceutical drug discovery, genomic data exploration,
and other domains. But information visualization tools can aid in any
situations that's characterized by large amounts of multi-dimensional or
rapidly changing data - online product catalogs, patient histories,
manufacturing process data - anything that has outgrown yesterday's static,
two-dimensional spreadsheet. Information visualization techniques are
already being used in a wide variety of applications such as mapping the
human genome, monitoring oil production, or even helping users select a type
of coffee to match their tastes.
This full-day seminar will follow a lecture format enhanced by a large
number of videos and live demonstrations, and with ample time for question
asking and discussion.
You Should Attend If...
... you are a web or software interface designer, information specialist, or
database programmer responsible for conveying complex information to users.
If you're a usability specialist, you may discover elegant solutions to
interface problems you've seen.

Reminder:
** InfoVis Hot Topics, Interactive Posters submissions 26 June 2001 **
The seventh IEEE Information Visualization Symposium (InfoVis 2001)
will be held in San Diego on Oct 22-23 2001, in conjunction with IEEE
Visualization Conference. The full call for papers is available at
http://www.infovis.org/infovis2001
This is a reminder for the two categories of submissions which are due
on 26 June 2001: Late Breaking Hot Topics and Interactive Posters.
(Interactive Posters deadline has been extended from the original
April 2nd date.)
--------------------
Late Breaking Hot Topics
Submission deadline: Tue. 26th June 2001
Late Breaking Hot Topics (LBHT) have a much later submission deadline
and are an opportunity to present exciting new findings, preliminary
results, and work in progress. LBHT submissions should be at most 4
printed pages and present original unpublished work. Accepted LBHT
papers will be published and distributed at the symposium.
Late Breaking Hot Topics Co-Chairs
John Dill, Simon Fraser University, Canada, dill at cs.sfu.ca
Nahum Gershon, MITRE Corp, gershon at mitre.org
--------------------
Interactive Posters
New submission deadline: Tue. 26th June 2001
We have extended the submission deadline for the new interactive
posters category. This category includes both traditional posters and
demos, either live on a laptop or through video. In this new category,
we encourage both submissions of original unpublished work and
submissions showcasing systems of interest to the information
visualization community that have been presented in other venues. We
highly encourage demonstrations of interactive systems.
All authors of accepted interactive posters are required to bring a
poster to and attend the scheduled poster session. Accepted authors
who wish to also show demos of their work are encouraged to also bring
a laptop to that session. There will be a limited number of stations
for showing videos during that session, depending on demand. Authors
who wish to show a live demo but cannot provide their own machine
should contact the posters chair in advance of the submission deadline
to discuss the logistics. All authors who plan to show live demos or
video should clearly indicate this fact in their submissions.
All interactive poster authors must submit a 2 page extended abstract,
and those who intend to show demos are highly encouraged to also
submit an accompanying video. Clearly identify the type of your
submission by including the prefix "Interactive Poster:" in the title
of your extended abstract. Extended abstracts of accepted interactive
posters will be printed in the LBHT proceedings, and accompanying
videos will be included in the electronic and/or video proceedings.

OLIVE: the On-line Library of Information Visualization Environments
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Announcing OLIVE --> http://otal.umd.edu/Olive/
the On-line Library of Information Visualization Environments!
This web-site covers eight categories of information visualization
environments differentiated by data type:
1D, 2D, 3D, Multi-D, Temporal, Tree, Network, and Workspaces
Within each category we have gathered what we feel are the
most important literary citations, commercial products, research
projects, and videos. This web-site is a class project for Dr. Ben
Shneiderman's fall 1997 CMSC 828/838S graduate course on Information
Visualization at the University of Maryland, College Park, Department
of Computer Science.
Dr. Shneiderman originally proposed a taxonomy of information
visualization environments in his paper, \"The eyes have it: A task by
data taxonomy of information visualizations.\" Following this
taxonomy, Chris North assembled a set which he entitled, \"A Taxonomy
of Information Visualization User-Interfaces.\" Building on that
original reference set, and Dr. Shneiderman's recent book, Designing
the User Interface (3rd Edition), our class has attempted to update,
expand, and annotate Chris North's original page.
We provide several approaches to viewing our site with the idea of
illustrating a few of the approaches available for visualizing
information presented on the web. Specifically, we offer a traditional
Graphics & Text interface, a Frames interface, a Text Only interface,
and a WebTOC interface. To avoid duplicate data that can become
inconsistent between interfaces, we dynamically rebuild the entire
web-site whenever changes are made to the input files for the site. A
detailed report on this process is available at:

Infovis '99 Call for Participation
WWW: http://www.erc.msstate.edu/infovis99
InfoVis '99, the fifth Information Visualization Symposium, will be
held to focus on the rapidly growing area of information
visualization. Increasing amounts of data and information and the
availability of fast digital network access are creating a rapidly
growing demand for accessing, querying and retrieving information and
data. However, information technology will not transform business,
science, medicine, engineering, and education if users cannot use it
easily and efficiently. Technology must come to the users, taking
their needs into account. If we do not involve the users, we will
develop useless systems. InfoVis '99 will focus on all aspects of
information visualization and human-centered information interfaces,
and on ways in which advances in interactive computer graphics
hardware, mass storage, and data visualization can be used to
visualize information. Submissions are solicited in all areas of
information visualization and human-centered information interfaces,
including, but not limited to, such topics as:
* Interactive information visualization
* Multi-dimensional information visualization
* Information presentation
* Visualization of complex information
* Information visualization for heterogeneous audiences
* Visualizing the internet and WWW
* Browsing and other Navigation methods
* Visualization Algorithms
* Visualization OF Algorithms
* Visualization of textual information
* Visualization and Knowledge Discovery
* Graph / Network Visualizations
* Geographic Visualizations
Submissions: The deadline for submission is March 31, 1999. Papers
should be at most 8,000 words including an abstract, affiliation, and
keywords, and should present previously unpublished original results.
Please submit 8 copies of your paper. Video submissions (NTSC VHS)
with papers are welcome (4 copies), but are not required. Videos will
assist reviewers' assessment of the papers. Submit to:

Last month I covered Information Visualization in my regular
Technology Review column for VR News magazine. These articles
require a fair bit of web (re)search and I have made the results
available on my web site.
http://isdale.com/jerry/VR/InfoVisLinks_VRNews.htm
is the short annotated list that appeared with the article. It sorts
into Starting Places, Government Research, Companies and Events
http://isdale.com/jerry/VR/InfoVis_Links.html
is a longer list sorted into Academic, Events, Government, Journals,
Links, Papers, People, Products, and Reference. I owe a fairly large
chunk of this to Martin Graham's Information Visualization Links
(http://www.dcs.napier.ac.uk/~marting/links.html)
Also of interest may be my trip report to IEEE InfoVis98:

Management of Data, Information and Knowledge
CODATA Symposium
28-30 June 1999
Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle, Paris, France
http://www.nrc.ca/programs/codata/99gershon.html
Increasing amounts of data and information and the availability
of fast digital network access (e.g., the World Wide Web)
have created a demand for querying, accessing, and retrieving
information and data. There are however some road blocks to the
success of the information highway. They include:
- Adequate information and knowledge management strategies and
methodologies which will support access and retrieval for
distributed and heterogeneous data sources.
- Effective visualizations which will enable users to use the
information highway easily and efficiently.
This symposium will discuss the state-of-the art of these important
fields and will define future directions for research and
development and for real-world implementations.
The Symposium will consist of invited talks and short papers
and posters in the following sessions:
- Information and Knowledge Management in Industry
- Information & Knowledge Management in Defense Systems
- Data Mining
- Tools for Information Management
- Information & Knowledge Management in Museum Collections
- Information & Knowledge Management in Geographical Information Systems
- Information & Knowledge Management in Civil Engineering
Short contributions for short papers and posters (no longer than
two pages) should be submitted by email by 1 April 1999 to:

Subject: Short Book Review/Announcement for the Digest
Here is a short description of a new and exciting book:
Visual Language
Global Communication for the 21st Century
Robert Horn
MacroVU, Press, 1999
Available at www.barnesandnoble.com
In this book, Bob Horn makes a compelling case for considering
visual language- the tight integration of words and visual
elements - a truly new language with the distinct syntax and semantics
expected of a language. He notes that the creation of visual language
emerges from people around the world.
This book has several parts.
- an introduction to the basic concept of visual language;
- a concise history of over 70 major innovations that form the
history of the language;
- a survey of the research on the emerging syntax and semantics
of the language;
- a practical guide to the applications of visual language.
I find the book to be both insightful and practical. Another
unique feature: it is accompanied by drawings made by the author.

Subject: Editor's note
I am pleased to announce that InfoVis Digest has reached -- 150 --
subscribers. This certainly shows that we all want to increase
communication in the growing Information Visualization community.
Now that there is a critical mass, I would like to stimulate
more information sharing.
The posts I received so far have mostly been \"announcements\" of
conferences. Other types of announcements that are welcome are
job openings, student/post-doc fellowships, address changes,
table of contents of journals or conference proceedings.
Moreover, I advise using the list to ..... ASK questions, request
help to solve problems, search literature or other information.
I have participated to another list for more than 10 years and
I witnessed how people with knowledge and experience are eager to
help others avoid ... to reinvent the wheel.

The CIKM'99 Workshop on New Paradigms in Information Visualization and
Manipulation will be a forum for presentation and discussion of new ideas
and techniques for accessing, visualizing and manipulating information.
Topics of interest include, but are not restricted to:
* visualization of multidimensional information spaces;
* visualization of large, dynamic information collections;
* shared virtual environments and simulations;
* dynamic data visualization;
* applications of virtual reality, including VRML;
* multi-modal information displays;
* applications of Internet tools such as MUDs, MOOs, and IRCs;
* document and corpus metrics;
* visual data mining and knowledge discovery;
* Web or network-based visualization;
* applications in document analysis;
* software and hardware architectures to support information
visualization;
* and social interaction in multi-user information visualization systems.
We are particularly interested in reports of work in progress,
implementation techniques, and practical experience with visualization of
information collections of all sizes. A significant portion of the workshop
agenda will be devoted to discussion of pending research questions, and
directions for future work in this area.
Prospective participants are invited (but not required) to submit position

WELCOME TO IEEE VISUALIZATION '99
Welcome to the 10th annual IEEE Visualization conference! Please join
us in our celebration of 10 years of leading edge research in
scientific visualization by returning to the city where we started,
San Francisco, California. In the past decade the field of scientific
visualization and the IEEE visualization conference have grown in both
size and sophistication. Reflecting this growth, our keynote talk will
describe a series of workshops by the leaders in the scientific
visualization field, resulting in \"Data and Visualization Corridors\".
This talk will lay out some of the greatest problems facing our field
today and strategies for their solution. Our capstone speaker, Rick
Stevens, looks into the future with a presentation of \"ActiveSpaces:
The Access Grid, ActiveMural and Advanced Visualization
Systems\". Between these two talks you will find reports on the state
of the art in data visualization, including new research, case studies
and vociferous and opinionated panels. You will also be able to see
and try the new technologies close up in the demonstration area and
the Creative Applications Lab (CAL).
Preceding the main conference on Wednesday through Friday are the
Sunday through Tuesday sessions. In these sessions you will find
several tutorials by leaders in the field, providing you with an
opportunity for learning the background of their research, as well as
studying their new work in depth. You will also find two symposia, the
symposium on information visualization, where techniques for the
visualization of abstract information will be studied, and the
symposium on parallel visualization and graphics, where you will see
new work in the application of parallel computer systems to our field.
Our 10th conference celebration will be loudest at the Wednesday night
banquet, where we will have special entertainment as well as
recognition of those who started the visualization conference and
nurtured it to its current success.
Please join us in San Francisco, California October 24 through 29, to
make this celebration memorable at the 10th visualization conference!

Subject: Need Panelists for NSF's ITR Proposals
Dear Colleague:
*** URGENT!*** WE NEED YOUR HELP! IMMEDIATE REPSONSE !***
NSF is preparing for the review of proposals submitted to
the Information Technology Research (ITR) initiative for
Fiscal Year 2000. The success of this program depends
critically on our ability to enlist the help of expert
reviewers such as you to help us identify the outstanding
proposals. We are building a pool of reviewers qualified
in IT-related research areas. ITR is a new $90M NSF initiative
that aims to promote fundamental research in information
technology, encouraging in particular research spanning
information technology and scientific applications, and in
the area of social, ethical and workforce issues. Specific
areas include: 1) software; 2) information technology education
and workforce; 3) human-computer interface; 4) information
management; 5) advanced computational science; 6) scalable
information infrastructure; 7) social and economic implications
of information technology; and 8) revolutionary computing.
The ITR Program Solicitation can be found on the NSF Web Page
at http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/1999/nsf99167/nsf99167.htm
The Fiscal Year 2000 competition requires the submission of
preproposals by January 5, 2000 for all PIs who plan to submit
full proposals requesting more than $500K. The preproposals
will be panel-reviewed during the week of February 7, 2000 at
three locations: 1) at NSF in Arlington, VA; 2) at a location
in Chicago, IL near O'Hare Airport; and 3) at a location to be
determined in the San Francisco area. Based on the results of
the preproposal screening, approximately 100 full proposals
will be encouraged for submission by April 17, 2000. Full
proposals will be panel reviewed at NSF on May 22, 2000.
A separate competition is being organized for those proposals
requesting less than $500K for the full duration of the award.
For this category of proposal, no preproposal is required.
Proposals requesting less than $500K are due at NSF on February
14, 2000. They will be reviewed at NSF during the weeks of
March 20 and March 27, 2000.
We would like to consider you as a potential panelist for this
activity. If you are involved in a proposal submitted to any
area of ITR, as PI, co-PI or otherwise as a participant, you
are ineligible to serve as a panelist. However, persons who are
submitting proposals for more than $500K can serve as panelists
to review proposals less than $500K and vice versa. We welcome
panelists from foreign countries, national laboratories, and
industry.
*IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN PARTICIPATING PLEASE ACT TODAY!*
Indicate your availability, and provide us with your information
by completing the ITR Panelist Entry Form at the following URL:
http://www.itr.nsf.gov/panelist. We urge you to fill out the
form immediately, since we will start to select panelists for the
February 7 panel meetings within the next few days. NSF will
pay all travel costs in addition to $130 per travel day and $260
per panel day. If you have other questions related to serving as
a panelist, please refer to the FAQ section of the ITR Home page
at http://www.itr.nsf.gov/it2-faq.html. Finally, we would also
appreciate it if you could forward this request to other i
well-qualified IT scientists who you think may be interested.
Since ITR is a large-scale competition, and we have a number of
people involved in seeking panelists, we apologize if more than
one person contacts you in this regard.
We look forward to your reply,
Sincerely, The ITR Working Group

WEB3D 2001 Conference
6th International Conference on 3D Web Technology
(Formerly known as VRMLxx)
19.-22. Feb. 2001, Paderborn, Germany
http://www.c-lab.de/web3d
The annual Web3D Symposium is a major event in the Web3D
community. This conference unites researchers, developers,
experimenters, content creators and others in a dynamic learning
environment. Attendees share and explore methods of using, enhancing
or creating new 3D web technology such as VRML, X3D, Java3D and
MPEG-4.
After the successful Web3D/VRML Symposia in San Diego (1995), Monterey
(1997, 1998, 2000) and Paderborn (1999) the world's leading
scientific/technological event in the field of Web3D will again be
held in Europe.The duration of the conference is four days: the first
two will consist of courses and workshops, and the second two days
will feature peer-reviewed papers and panels. A variety of different
events will be organized during the evenings.
-------- VRML -- X3D -- Java3D -- MPEG-4 -- and more ---------------
Papers
======
Web3D 2001 will accept papers in the following three categories:
applications, research, and systems. All content must be innovative
and meaningful to the advancement of 3D technologies on the web. An
international program committee will review all submitted
papers. Papers should be submitted in electronic form.
Videos
======
Short video submissions complimenting a technical paper will be
considered for the inclusion in a tape loop. The video will run in the
Web3D 2001 lobby.
Panels
======
Ideally, panels should address current issues in the Web3D
community. Panels should present topics of interest to the audience;

Call for Papers
Information Visualization
Special Issue of IEEE CG&A, January/February 2002
Guest Editor: Tamara Munzner
Submissions due: 31 May 2001
Acceptance notices: 23 August 2001
Final revisions due: 1 October 2001
Computer-based information visualization, or \"infovis\", draws on ideas
from several intellectual traditions, including computer graphics,
human-computer interaction, cognitive psychology, semiotics, graphic
design, cartography, and art. A distinct field centered around helping
people explore or explain data by designing software that exploits the
properties of the human visual system has emerged over the past
several years. New methodologies and techniques are critical for
helping people keep pace with the torrents of data. One of the few
quantities increasing faster than the speed of computer hardware is
the amount of data to be processed.
The theme for the January/February 2002 issue of IEEE Computer
Graphics and its Applications is information visualization. The design
challenge of finding a spatial mapping for an abstract dataset that is
cognitively useful for a specific task is considerable. We solicit
papers that describe innovative results in this area. Potential topics
for articles include:
visualization of networks, both geographic and topological
visualization of the Web
visualization of large text document collections
visualization techniques for multi-dimensional data
layout, navigation and browsing of large information spaces
interaction design for infovis systems
empirical user studies of infovis systems or techniques
infovis systems or techniques that scale to large datasets
application case studies and infovis success stories
Papers should be less than ten magazine pages, where a page is 900
words or five images. Cite only the ten most critical references, and
consider providing background in sidebars for non-expert readers.
Color images may be interspersed through the body of the paper.
Detailed CG&A style and length guidelines are available at
http://www.computer.org/cga/author.htm.

Visualization 2001. This is the 5th meeting in a series that began with the
Parallel Rendering Symposium. The current title reflects an expanded
emphasis
on large data models, scientific visualization and graphics, in addition to
photorealistic rendering. This emphasis is intended to address subject
areas outside the bounds of larger conferences, e.g. IEEE Visualization or
ACM SIGGRAPH.
Papers are due March 31, 2001 and are expected to address issues of large
data
models, parallelism, or both, as applied to problems in visualization and
graphics.
Although large data models and parallelism are often linked, submission of
papers
focusing on small-scale parallelism and non-parallel large data techniques
is
encouraged. We are also interested in hardware, survey papers, and
state-of-the-art
case studies.
Possible topics include:
o Parallel algorithms, architectures and software
o Load balancing, scalability and performance
o Mesh/data simplification
o Feature extraction
o Multi-resolution and out-of-core techniques
o Isocontouring and volume rendering
o Vector/tensor field visualization
o Parallel rendering, modeling and simulation
o Displays, multi-model interaction and virtual reality
o Graphics/network accelerators and systems
Submission: The deadline for submissions is March 31, 2001. Final papers
will be
limited to 8 proceedings pages plus one page of color figures. Case studies
are
limited to 4 proceedings pages plus one page of color figures. E-mail your
submission in either PDF or compressed Postscript to
pvg2001 at gg.caltech.edu.

Organized in Cooperation with Smartmoney
Treemaps are a space-filling visualization for hierarchical structures that
are extremely effective in showing attributes of leaf nodes by size and
color coding. Treemaps enable users to compare sizes of nodes and of
sub-trees, and are especially strong in spotting unusual patterns. They
were developed by Ben Shneiderman at the Human-Computer Interaction
Laboratory (HCIL) of the University of Maryland, during the 1990s. A review
of treemaps and their growing set of applications appears at:
www.cs.umd.edu/hcil/treemaps Treemaps are a continuing topic of research
and application at the HCIL and at Smartmoney (www.smartmoney.com) whose
marketmap has attracted international attention and design awards.
To promote discussion and share insights, the HCIL and Smartmoney are
organizing a one-day workshop with 15-25 people. Potential participants
should send a title for their presentation and a one paragraph abstract for
us to include in the website. Send to Ben Shneiderman (ben at cs.umd.edu)

From: \"Bederson, Ben\" <bederson at cs.umd.edu>
Subject: Jazz 1.1 - A Java Toolkit for Zoomable User Interfaces, and other
Structured Graphics
Jazz, version 1.1, is now available. Jazz is a general-purpose toolkit for
creating Zoomable User Interface (ZUI) applications using 2D graphics.
Zoomable User Interfaces display graphical information on a virtual canvas
that is very broad and has very high resolution. A portion of this huge
canvas is seen on the display through a virtual \"camera\" that can pan and
zoom over the surface. Jazz is a generic package for supporting structured
graphics and information visualization, and is also appropriate for
non-zooming applications. Jazz is built entirely in Java and runs on all
platforms that support Java 2. Jazz uses the Java2D renderer, and is
organized to support efficient animation, rapid screen updates, and high
quality stills.
Jazz borrows many of the structural elements common to 3D scenegraph
systems, such as Sun's Java3D and SGI's OpenInventor. By using a basic
hierarchical scenegraph model with cameras, Jazz is able to directly support
a variety of common as well as forward-looking interface mechanisms. This
includes hierarchical groups of objects with affine transforms (translation,
scale, rotation and shear), layers, zooming, internal cameras (portals),
lenses, semantic zooming, and multiple representations.
Jazz is completely Open Source and version 1.1 is now available at

Nahum Gershon, MITRE Corp, gershon at mitre.org
--------------------
Interactive Posters
New submission deadline: Tue. 26th June 2001
We have extended the submission deadline for the new interactive
posters category. This category includes both traditional posters and
demos, either live on a laptop or through video. In this new category,
we encourage both submissions of original unpublished work and
submissions showcasing systems of interest to the information
visualization community that have been presented in other venues. We
highly encourage demonstrations of interactive systems.
All authors of accepted interactive posters are required to bring a
poster to and attend the scheduled poster session. Accepted authors
who wish to also show demos of their work are encouraged to also bring
a laptop to that session. There will be a limited number of stations
for showing videos during that session, depending on demand. Authors
who wish to show a live demo but cannot provide their own machine
should contact the posters chair in advance of the submission deadline
to discuss the logistics. All authors who plan to show live demos or
video should clearly indicate this fact in their submissions.
All interactive poster authors must submit a 2 page extended abstract,
and those who intend to show demos are highly encouraged to also
submit an accompanying video. Clearly identify the type of your
submission by including the prefix \"Interactive Poster:\" in the title
of your extended abstract. Extended abstracts of accepted interactive
posters will be printed in the LBHT proceedings, and accompanying
videos will be included in the electronic and/or video proceedings.

From: \"Bederson, Ben\" <bederson at cs.umd.edu>
Subject: Browse your digital photos with PhotoMesa 1.1
Visualize your photos with treemaps using a Zoomable User Interface!
A new photo browser called PhotoMesa is now available. It supports
image browsing in a family environment. It requires no organization of
photos to get started, and supports a novel and easy-to-use zoomable
interface. By showing many directories of photos at once, organized
using a novel variation of the \"treemap\" algorithm, it supports rapid
browsing. PhotoMesa requires only a set of images on disk, and does
not require the user to add any metadata, or manipulate the images at
all before browsing, thus making it easy to get started with existing
images.
While other image management systems have focused on annotating and
searching, PhotoMesa concentrates on browsing. The interface lets you
concentrate on the images, without having to manage scrollbars, menus,
or pop-up windows. It also lets you group images by available
metadata, such as directory location, image creation date, and words
in the filename. We have built it intending it to be useful in
informal situations, such as looking at photos together among family
members. Others have found it useful as a way of finding what is on
their hard disk.
Available for free for non-commercial use from the University of
Maryland Human-Computer Interaction Lab at:

PhotoMesa is built using Jazz, our toolkit for Zoomable User

Subject: Info Vis tutorial - October 2
Full-day Seminar: Information Visualization
Ben Shneiderman and Catherine Plaisant
Human-Computer Interaction Laboratory, University of Maryland
Monday, October 1, 2001, 8:30am-5:30pm, Cambridge, MA
Part of \"User Interface 6 East\" http://www.uiconf.com/
Information visualization was mostly a dream 5 years ago, but it's now
a reality. The latest generation of visual data mining tools and
animated GUIs take advantage of human perceptual skills to produce
striking results. This tutorial by two of the field's leading
researchers will show examples of commercially successful uses of
information visualization technology in today's web and software
interfaces, plus recent research breakthroughs and hints of what's to
come.
Information visualization techniques empower users to perceive
important patterns in a large amount of data, identify areas that need
further scrutiny, and make sophisticated decisions. The Visual
Information-Seeking Mantra is to \"overview first, zoom and filter,
then give details on demand.\" But looking at information is only a
start. Users also need to manipulate and query the data, using
real-time tools to zoom, filter, and relate the information - and undo
if they make a mistake.
You may be familiar with SmartMoney.com's \"Map of the Market\" that
uses our Treemap visualization to graphically represent US stock
market data and show overall trends and exceptions. You may also be
familiar with Spotfire's success story in pharmaceutical drug
discovery, genomic data exploration, and other domains. But
information visualization tools can aid in any situations that's
characterized by large amounts of multi-dimensional or rapidly
changing data - online product catalogs, patient histories,
manufacturing process data - anything that has outgrown yesterday's
static, two-dimensional spreadsheet. Information visualization
techniques are already being used in a wide variety of applications
such as mapping the human genome, monitoring oil production, or even
helping users select a type of coffee to match their tastes.
This full-day seminar will follow a lecture format enhanced by a large
number of videos and live demonstrations, and with ample time for
question asking and discussion.
You Should Attend If...
... you are a web or software interface designer, information
specialist, or database programmer responsible for conveying complex
information to users. If you're a usability specialist, you may
discover elegant solutions to interface problems you've seen.

From: Pearl Pu Faltings [Pearl.Pu at epfl.ch]
Subject: references on visualizing resources and resource management?
I am writing a paper on visualizing resources and resource management.
Please send me references of your work or works that you know of besides
the published articles on telecom network visualization (Beck and Eick
and similar works), energy networks (Overbye and Weber), and our own
work on visualizing resource allocation (Pu and Melissagos).
By resources, I consider the following three types:
1. Consumable - e.g., money, fuel, and energy.
2. Reusable/non-sharable -- like most equipment, aircraft, etc. They are
unavailable only while being used by a particular consumer and are
otherwise available. These resources are non-divisible and their
capacity must be wholly allocated to a single consumer.
3. Reusable/synchronized-sharable --- these resources can be
simultaneously allocated to multiple consumers but only in a temporally
synchronized manner, e.g., communication bandwidths.
4. Reusable/independently-sharable --- e.g., parking lot. They can be
simultaneouly allocated to multiple consumers and used without
synchronization.

Subject: CFP: Young VR (Korea)
Preliminary Call for Participation
Young Investigator's Forum in Virtual Reality (YoungVR, 2001)
December 18-20, 2001
KAIST, Daejon, Korea
vrrc.kaist.ac.kr/yvr2001
Call for Participation
The Virtual Reality Research Center (VRRC) in Korea
(http://vrrc.kaist.ac.kr/) invites advanced graduate students (or any
individual with similar credentials) around the world to participate
in a forum to discuss the future of virtual reality. VRRC,
established within KAIST, is one of the highly prestegious government
supported centers in Korea that specializes in the VR research. This
year's forum will mark its first occurrence, and will also be first of
its kind, specifically inviting only advanced graduate students for
free form discussion on the future directions of virtual reality and
related technologies. The forum hopes to provide an execellent
opportunity for the young researchers of VR around the world to
present, discuss, and cultivate new ideas.
An extended abstract of 2000 words are solicited on all aspects of
virtual reality, in particular on the future visions of VR and related
technologies. The main contributor of the submission must be a
graduate student, preferably who has finished one's research proposal
toward one's PhD degree. The nature of the forum is designed to be
small-scale, free form, higly interactive, and intensive, thus we will
only accept around 10 submissions. All accepted participants will be
provided with all or partial expenses for travel and lodging (roundtrip
plane tickets to Korea, and room/meal). For detailed format of the
forum, visit the forum web site at vrrc.kaist.ac.kr/yvr2001.
The first two days will be consisted of presentations and discussion
rounds and during the final day, a social event is planned as an
opportunity for the participants to get to know one another more.
Submission deadline for the extended abstracts is October 1, 2001 with
notification of acceptance by November 1, 2001. Please submit
abstracts (or inquiries) to: Gerry J. Kim at POSTECH, Korea
(gkim at postech.ac.kr). The official language is English.

IEEE SYMPOSIUM ON INFORMATION VISUALIZATION (INFOVIS 2002)
Sponsored by IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Visualization
and Graphics
October 28 - 29, 2002 * Park Plaza Hotel * Boston, MA
http://www.infovis.org/infovis2002
The IEEE Symposium on Information Visualization is the premier meeting
in the emerging field of information visualization, involving the
visual presentation of and interaction with abstract information
spaces and structures to facilitate their rapid assimilation and
understanding. Original papers are solicited in all areas of
information visualization. In addition, we are encouraging submissions
on bioinformatics, following the bio-visualization theme of our parent
conference, Vis2002. In particular, the symposium is interested in all
aspects of abstract visualization of digital biology information.
Topics include:
* Bioinformatics visualization
* Browsing and navigation methods
* Data structures and models underlying visualization
* Empirical studies of information visualization techniques
* Graph / network visualizations
* Information presentation as storytelling
* Interactive techniques for information visualization
* Information visualization for heterogeneous audiences
* Multi-dimensional information visualization
* Visual data mining
* Visualization and knowledge discovery
* Visualization for mobile computing
* Visualization in CSCW
* Visualization applications in areas such as
o Algorithms
o Commerce and financial systems
o Complex information
o Internet and WWW
o Mobile computing
o Search results
o Textual information
InfoVis 2002 Full Papers (due March 29, 2002)
Full papers should be at most 8 printed pages. Full papers present
previously unpublished, original results. Papers submitted as full
papers may, at the discretion of the program co-chairs, be invited for
publication and presentation as short papers.
InfoVis 2002 Short Papers (due March 29, 2002)
Short papers should be at most 4 printed pages. The short paper
category is intended for two submission types: a) case studies
describing how information visualization has contributed to working
applications in real-life environments and b) technical notes that,
though novel and of interest to the community, do not warrant a full
paper submission. Clearly identify the type of your submission by
including the prefix \"Case Study:\" or \"Technical Note:\" in the title
of your short paper submission.
InfoVis 2002 Interactive Posters (due July 1, 2002)
The interactive poster category includes both traditional posters and
demonstrations of interactive systems, either live on a laptop or
through video. We encourage both submissions of original unpublished
work and submissions showcasing systems of interest to the information
visualization community that have been presented in other venues.
All authors of accepted interactive posters are required to bring an
explanatory hardcopy poster for display during the scheduled evening
poster session, and be available for discussion at that time. Accepted
authors who wish to also show demos of their work are encouraged to
also bring a laptop to the poster session. Authors are required to
present a very brief summary of their interactive poster at a short
preview session earlier in the day. There will be a limited number of
stations for showing videos during that session. Authors who wish to
show a live demo but cannot provide their own machine should contact
the posters chairs in advance of the submission deadline to discuss
the logistics. All authors who plan to show live demos or video should
clearly indicate this fact in their submissions.
Interactive poster authors must submit a 2 page extended abstract, and
those who intend to show demos are highly encouraged to also submit an
accompanying video. Clearly identify the type of your submission by
including the prefix \"Interactive Poster:\" in the title of your
extended abstract.
Submissions:
Please prepare your submission according to the IEEE CS Press Author
Guidelines at <http://www.computer.org/cspress/instruct.htm>, with the
understanding that the papers proceedings will be printed in full
color. Submissions longer than the page limits will not be
considered. Papers should be submitted electronically as PDF (Adobe
portable document format) files. Details of the submission process
will be posted on the InfoVis 2002 web site.
Submissions to any of the InfoVis 2002 categories may be accompanied
by supporting digital movies with a maximum length of 5 minutes.
Accompanying movies will assist in the review process. Movies viewable
with QuickTime Player or Windows Media Player should be submitted
electronically.
Publication:
Accepted long and short papers will be published in an
archival-quality proceedings directly from revised PDF files submitted
by the authors. The proceedings will be printed with a high-
resolution full color printing process. The accepted papers, along
with supporting media, will also be included in the conference
DVD. The IEEE Computer Society will distribute the proceedings.
Extended abstracts of accepted interactive posters will be distributed
in the black and white InfoVis 2002 Interactive Posters Compendium,
using revised PDF files submitted by the authors. The Posters
Compendium will be available only at the conference. Abstracts and
accompanying material such as digital movies will also be made
available from the conference web site.
For detailed information concerning submission, please see the
symposium web site, or email infovis at vis.computer.org.

The abstract submission email should contain the names and
institutions of all authors, contact information of one contact
author (name, e-mail, postal address, phone and fax numbers), and the
(not necessarily final) title and abstract of the submission.
Courier-service mail will be used only for those submissions that the
co-chairs find unusable, and for videos accompanying papers. In the
latter case, one paper copy of the paper should be sent along with
five copies of the accompanying videotape or CD-ROM to one of the two
program co-chairs. In the case of videotapes an effort should be made
to include the segment in both PAL and NTSC on the same VHS tape, to
ensure that it can be seen by all reviewers. An authors toolkit
including LaTeX and MS Word style files is available from the
conference Web page. Submissions missing the deadline will be
considered with reduced priority, to the extent practical within
the short review cycle.
