Show It or Tell It? Text, Visualization, and Their Combination
When communicating information, language should be considered as co-equal with visualization.
‘Natural’ Search User Interfaces
Users will speak rather than type, watch video rather than read, and use technology socially rather than alone.
Clustering Versus Faceted Categories For Information Exploration
Information seekers often express a desire for a user interface that organizes search results into meaningful groups, in order to help make sense of the results, and to help decide what to do next. A longitudinal study in which participants were provided with the ability to group search results found they changed their search habits […]
Rich interaction in the digital library
Effective information access involves rich interactions between users and information residing in diverse locations. Users seek and retrieve information from the sources—for example, file serves, databases, and digital libraries—and use various tools to browse, manipulate, reuse, and generally process the information. We have developed a number of techniques that support various aspects of the process of user/information interaction. These techniques can be considered attempts to increase the bandwidth and quality of the interactions between users and information in an information workspace—an environment designed to support information work (see Figure 1).
