Visionize before Visualize

Why Johnny Won't Visualize

Visualize and Open Up

Motivating students of the Nintendo generation for Computer Science can only be achieved by providing them with an exiting and fresh CS1 course. The article describes the experience of redesigning the introductory programming course at ETH Zurich and shows how the combination of state-of-the-art visualizations with open project assignments enlivens students’ enthusiasm for programming. It shows...

Databases will Visualize Queries too

Visual Query Languages study ways to help users compose queries with visual metaphors. Information Visualization studies automatic visualization techniques to help users understand and analyze data. Query Management focuses on ways to help users manage and re-use existing queries. We observe that there is a related research question across those three topics which has not received much attentio...

Using Integral Surfaces to Visualize Cfd Simulation Data Using Integral Surfaces to Visualize Cfd Simulation Data

SUMMARY Visualization of 3D, unsteady (4D) flow is very difficult due to both perceptual challenges and the large size of 4D vector field data. Here, we describe the use of integral surfaces for visualization of CFD simulation data. By " integral " surfaces we mean surfaces based on massless particles that are integrated according to the underlying flow. Traditionally, integral curves, e.g., st...

Exploring LifeLines to Visualize Patient Records

LifeLines provide a general visualization environment for personal histories. We explored its use for medical patient records. A one screen overview of the record using timelines provides direct access to the data. Problems, hospitalization and medications can be represented as horizontal lines, while icons represent discrete events such as physician consultations (and progress notes) or tests....
