DEVise and the JavaScreen: visualization on the web
Hongyu Yao, Kent Wenger, Miron Livny · Proceedings of SPIE, the International Society for Optical Engineering/Proceedings of SPIE · 2000
DEVise is a general-purpose data visualization and exploration system capable of handling datasets from a variety of sources. Users create visual presentations, which they, or others, can dynamically explore to search for patterns in their data. The JavaScreen is a Java applet we have recently developed, which functions as a DEVise client. With it, users can explore visual presentation via the web, without having to actually install the DEVise software. Our paper covers three main areas: DEVise itself, including the fundamental DEVise model and adaptations required to support the JavaScreen; the JavaScreen and related software; and the use of DEVise and the JavaScreen in several applications.
