IEEE Visualization '96
CALL FOR PARTICIPATION FOR IEEE SYMPOSIUM ON INFORMATION VISUALIZATION SYMPOSIUM (INFOVIS '97)
October 20-21, 1997
Phoenix, Arizona
InfoVis '97, the third Information Visualization Symposium, will be held to focus on the emerging area
of information visualization. Increasing amounts of data and information and the availability of fast
digital network access (e.g., in the information highway environment) have created a demand for
querying, accessing, and retrieving information and data. However, information technology will not
transform business, science, medicine, engineering, and education if the users cannot use it easily
and efficiently. Technology must come to the users, taking their needs into account. If we do not
involve the users, we will develop useless systems. InfoVis '97 will focus on all aspects of
visualizing information and how users interact with digital information . It will foster an
exchange of ideas on all aspects of information visualization and human-information interface, and how
advances in interactive computer graphics hardware, mass storage, and data visualization could be
used to visualize information. Submissions are solicited in all areas of information visualization
and human-information interfaces, including, but not limited to, such topics as:
- visualizing the internet
- interactive info visualization
- multi-dimensional info vis
- info presentation
- vis of textual info
- info vis to heterogeneous audience
- visualizing the WWW (e.g., Mosaic)
- browsing
- navigation
- vis of complex info
- algorithms
- discovery
- applications, including, but not limited to:
- digital libraries
- finance
- publishing
- marketing databases
- medical
- education
- software systems
- communications networks
Papers should be at most 8,000 words in length including an abstract, affiliation, and keywords, and should present
previously unpublished original results. Video submissions (NTSC VHS) with papers are welcome, but are not
required. Videos will assist reviewers' assessment of the technical soundness of submitted papers, and will
not be returned.
