EuroVis/Nicograph 2010

 By Alejandro Toledo

Recently I participated in two international conferences: EuroVis and Nicograph. EuroVis  is the annual visualization symposium jointly organized by the Eurographics Working Group on Data Visualization and the IEEE Visualization and Graphics Technical Committee. NicoGraph, on the other hand, is organized by The Society for Art and Science. This year EuroVis took place in Bordeaux, France, where I participated in a poster / demo session. At Nicograph, this time in Singapore, I participated in a paper session. During both events, I presented the results of a research on information visualization and visual analytics that our research group has been recently conducting. Basically, this research focuses on the analytical side of information visualization systems, e.g., how effective they are as cognitive tools. As in a previous work, we continue the work on the Stacked Graph visualization and now our system has an extension to enable visual analytics on it. This new functionality has been tested on a usability study and reported to be presented at EuroVis and Nicograph.
