Technologist-Historian: Data Visualization Meets the Archive.

Mapping an ancient historian in a digital age: the Herodotus Encoded Space-Text-Image Archive (HESTIA)

HESTIA (the Herodotus Encoded Space-Text-Imaging Archive) employs the latest digital technology to develop an innovative methodology to the study of spatial data in Herodotus’ Histories. Using a digital text of Herodotus, freely available from the Perseus on-line library, to capture all the place-names mentioned in the narrative, we construct a database to house that information and represent i...

A new approach for data visualization problem

Data visualization is the process of transforming data, information, and knowledge into visual form, making use of humans’ natural visual capabilities which reveals relationships in data sets that are not evident from the raw data, by using mathematical techniques to reduce the number of dimensions in the data set while preserving the relevant inherent properties. In this paper, we formulated d...

The Data Services Archive

As access to multi-teraflop platforms has become more available in the Department of Energy Advanced Simulation Computing (ASCI) environment, large-scale simulations are generating terabytes of data that may be located remotely to the site where the data will be archived. This paper describes the Data Service Archive (DSA), a service oriented capability for simplifying and optimizing the distri...

Continuous Statistical Visualization - Where Information Visualization Meets Scientific Visualization

A rather recent trend in visualization is to combine traditional scientific visualization methods (such as volume rendering) with information and statistical visualization techniques (such as scatterplots). This combination of techniques is particularly useful for multi-variate data defined on spatial grids because the spatial relationships and the characteristics of the data attributes can be ...
