Through the synthesis of gathered user research data, interaction designers are able to generate design proposals. Logging user interactions with a software provides a rich set of data that can give further insights into ...

This visualization is the timeline of the popular musicians who died at the age of 27, often as a result of drug and alcohol abuse, violent means such as suicide or homicide. The timeline is distributed according to the ...

When visualizing geospatial network data, it is possible to position nodes according to their geographic locations or to position nodes using standard network layout algorithms that ignore geographic location. Such data ...

Topics in a text corpus include features and information; visualizing these topics can improve a user's understanding of the corpus. Topics can be broadly divided into two categories: those whose meaning can be described ...

Data visualization is of increasing importance in the Biosciences. During the past 15 years, a great number of novel methods and tools for biological data visualization have been developed and published in various journals ...

Interoperability, interactivity and 3D visualization are three of the most important challenges related to Geographical Information Systems. In the last few years, research on interoperability has evolved from simple ...

When it is hard to see a small font size document that is in your hand, you usually move it closer to your face. When you want to see the whole of a large sheet such as a map, you usually get it away from your face. On the ...

Haptics force-feedback technology is fast becoming a consumer product and no longer only found in research laboratories. The emergence of the budget Falcon device (Novint Technologies, Inc., USA) represents a key step in ...

We propose a biometric authentication system for pointer-based systems including, but not limited to, increasingly prominent pen-based mobile devices. To unlock a mobile device equipped with our biometric authentication ...

Two different approaches for the preparation of novel cost-effective molecular haptic applications (Figure 1) are described. The former utilises Perl scripting within a commercial molecular modelling package to generate ...
