A flexible architecture for user-adaptable visualization

Bastiaan Schönhage, Anton Eliëns · 1997

When information visualization is being used to support multiple users, hvo characteristics are important.First, multiple users with different backgrounds have individual information needs and thus require multiple views on the information.Second, to allow users to experiment with the information and the visualization, the visualization must be adaptable.This paper presents a conceptual framework which decouples the generation and presentation of information by means of an intermediate derived model, allowing users to adapt the visualization to their information needs.Additionally, we will discuss a Web-based software architecture which deploys CORBA to allow for dynamic and interactive visualizations.
