Case Study: A Combined Visualization Approach for WWW-Search Results
Thomas M. Mann, Harald Reiterer · KOPS (University of Konstanz) · 1999
The idea of Information Visualization is to get insights into great amounts of abstract data. Especially document sets found by searching the World Wide Web are a special challenge. The paper gives a short overview on the variety of possible visualizations for this application area. Crucial factors for the success of visualizations are discussed. A combined approach is presented to use alternative simple visualizations, grouped around the traditional result-list, for usage with a local meta web search engine.
