    • EuroVis STARs 2016: Frontmatter 

      Ross Maciejewski; Timo Ropinski; Anna Vilanova (Eurographics Association, 2016)
    • Formalizing Emphasis in Information Visualization 

      Hall, Kyle Wm.; Perin, Charles; Kusalik, Peter G.; Gutwin, Carl; Carpendale, Sheelagh (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      We provide a fresh look at the use and prevalence of emphasis effects in Infovis. Through a survey of existing emphasis frameworks, we extract a set-based approach that uses visual prominence to link visually and algorithmically ...
    • In Situ Methods, Infrastructures, and Applications on High Performance Computing Platforms 

      Bauer, Andrew C.; Abbasi, Hasan; Ahrens, James; Childs, Hank; Geveci, Berk; Klasky, Scott; Moreland, Kenneth; O'Leary, Patrick; Vishwanath, Venkatram; Whitlock, Brad; Bethel, E. W. (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      The considerable interest in the high performance computing (HPC) community regarding analyzing and visualization data without first writing to disk, i.e., in situ processing, is due to several factors. First is an I/O ...
    • Matrix Reordering Methods for Table and Network Visualization 

      Behrisch, Michael; Bach, Benjamin; Riche, Nathalie Henry; Schreck, Tobias; Fekete, Jean-Daniel (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      This survey provides a description of algorithms to reorder visual matrices of tabular data and adjacency matrix of networks. The goal of this survey is to provide a comprehensive list of reordering algorithms published ...
    • The State of the Art in Cartograms 

      Nusrat, Sabrina; Kobourov, Stephen (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      Cartograms combine statistical and geographical information in thematic maps, where areas of geographical regions (e.g., countries, states) are scaled in proportion to some statistic (e.g., population, income). Cartograms ...
    • State of the Art in Transfer Functions for Direct Volume Rendering 

      Ljung, Patric; Krüger, Jens; Gröller, Eduard; Hadwiger, Markus; Hansen, Charles D.; Ynnerman, Anders (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      A central topic in scientific visualization is the transfer function (TF) for volume rendering. The TF serves a fundamental role in translating scalar and multivariate data into color and opacity to express and reveal the ...
    • State-of-the-Art Report in Web-based Visualization 

      Mwalongo, Finian; Krone, Michael; Reina, Guido; Ertl, Thomas (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      In this report, we review the current state of the art of web-based visualization applications. Recently, an increasing number of web-based visualization applications have emerged. This is due to the fact that new technologies ...
