Viewpoints and visualization Current visualization modes Emerging visualization modes Introduction Adaptable Visualization Services AVS Design Case study Conclusion February 17, 2010 IESS 1.0 2010
The concept of usage  Users needs related to −  Their role in the cooperative activity •  e.g. in AEC: architect, engineer, owner of a building… −  Available business services in the collective project  Example of usage: architect need − Searching for specific documents in order to check their consistency with main architectural plans  Defining usages − …As guidelines in User Interface (UI) design Introduction Adaptable Visualization Services AVS Design Case study Conclusion February 17, 2010 IESS 1.0 2010
Usage centered UI design  Usage centered [Constantine & Lookwood 2003] −  Software Engineering approach −  Task oriented −  Based on a collection of models −  Incremental design with interconnected models Introduction Adaptable Visualization Services AVS Design Case study Conclusion February 17, 2010 IESS 1.0 2010
Adaptable and adaptive UI design   In Human-Computer Interface domain −  Adaptable UI can be modified by users −  Adaptive UI changes without explicit intervention of users   Emergent UI design by models −  « To design once and generate many times » −  Modeling different contexts of use (CU) −  Modeling user interface elements evolution −  Based on differents models: CU (user, platform, environment), domain (task, concept), UI (elements)... [Sottet, J. et al. 2006] Introduction Adaptable Visualization Services AVS Design Case study Conclusion February 17, 2010 IESS 1.0 2010
From adaptive UI to Adaptable Visualization Service  Adaptive UI design − Simple user interface − In individual activity situations  UI design for collective activity − Another context : the actor context in the activity − Each actor has his own point of view •  A point of view : a set of visualization modes •  Adapted to different usages − Our approach •  Supporting viewpoint building by usage •  Choosing among a set of Adaptable Visualization Services Introduction Adaptable Visualization Services AVS Design Case study Conclusion February 17, 2010 IESS 1.0 2010
Adaptable Visualization Service   Visualization services −  Visualize a collection of information −  Remote service offering added value −  Dedicated to a particular scientific domain −  Useful for interpretation of a large volume of data −  In an individual or collective visualization activity   Visualization Service design −  Based on the concept of “dataflow” or “pipeline” •  Data filtering, geometric transformation, image rendering −  Adaptable Visualization Services design is emerging [Hocová, P. et al. 2008] Introduction Adaptable Visualization Services AVS Design Case study Conclusion February 17, 2010 IESS 1.0 2010
