We aim at a visualization framework that empowers the user to reveal information that is not obvious just by looking at the graph. The keys to reach that goal are interactive graphs in combination with well established visualization methods. Techniques such as multiple views, linking & brushing, and focus + context are already implemented in the system. Furthermore the application is designed f...

Providing easy to use methods for visual analysis of Linked Data is often hindered by the complexity of semantic technologies. On the other hand, semantic information inherent to Linked Data provides opportunities to support the user in interactively analysing the data. This paper provides a demonstration of an interactive, Web-based visualisation tool, the “Vis Wizard”, which makes use of sema...

In this paper, we present some of our recent experiences with a data visualization tool and offer some use cases where the visualization tool can potentially drive programmatic change in universities. The Ribbon Tool provides an interactive visualization of student flows through academic programs, progressing over time to either successful completion (graduation) or attrition. Through effective...

We present a systematic study of opportunities for the interactive visual analysis of multi-dimensional scientific data that is based on the integration of statistical aggregations along selected independent data dimensions in a framework of coordinated multiple views (with linking and brushing). Traditional and robust estimates of the four statistical moments (mean, variance, skewness, and kur...

The successful introduction of technology into museums and exhibitions is a complex and difficult process. It requires detailed study of both visitor expectations and experiences and a sensitivity to curator and exhibition designer concerns, together with the concerns of architects and interior designers, in the case of newly built spaces. It also requires an understanding of the ergonomics of ...

Researchers who have examined the use of interactive whiteboards (IWBs) for pedagogic uses have often suggested that IWBs would likely affect both teachers’ teaching and students’ learning styles. This article defines four IWB supported teaching and learning interaction factors: IWB Supported Teaching (IST), IWB Supported Learning (ISL), Teacher Supported Learning (TSL), and Student Interactive...

background and purpose: rational use of drugs remains a problem in iran. polypharmacy, overuse of antibiotic, misuse and overuse of injections, short consulting time and poor patient compliance are common patterns of irrational use of drugs in eastern azarbydjan - iran. concerning the promotion of rational use of drugs, this study aimed the effect of educational intervention as interactive grou...

Recent progress in Interactive Storytelling has been mostly based on the development of proof-of-concept prototypes, whilst the actual production process for interactive narratives largely remains to be invented. Central to this effort is the concept of authoring, which should determine the relationships between generative technologies underlying Interactive Storytelling engines, and the actual...
