....component is to make it easy for people to navigate through the design space. We would like users to explore the display intuitively, relying on visual comparisons in evaluating and examining candidate graphics. A great deal of research has been done in the field of graphic design (Bowman, 1968; Dondis, 1973; Tufte, 1983; Tufte, 1990; Tufte, 1997) its goal is the design of effective visual communication for information presentation. Typical considerations include form, spatial organization, and composition. Within the field of user interfaces, Marcus (1983; 1995; 1992) has applied many of these ....

....techniques : consistency, predictability, se quentiality, and continuity; # photographic techniques : sharpness, roundness, stabi lity, levelling, activeness, subtlety, representation, realism, and flatness. PHYSICAL TECHNIQUES Balance is a highly recommended technique evoked by many authors [6,7,13,14,17]. Balance is a search for equilibrium along a vertical or horizontal axis in the layout. If a weight is attached to every IO, balance requires that the sum of IO weights on each hand of the axis remains similar (fig. 2a) Balance is justified by the human perception and intense need for it in ....
....realised through symmetry (fig. 3a) and asymmetry (fig. 3b) see symmetry) Symmetry provides a balance to the layout by centring titles, headings on both sides of the axis, by placing two columns of equal length, one on the left, one on the right. The weights of IO can be adjusted asymmetrically [6], although it is technically more complicated to reach a balance with dynamic asymmetry than with static symmetry. Reaching asymmetric balance is a matter of weight, size and position. Symmetry [6,13,17] consists of duplicating the visual image of IO along a horizontal (fig. 4a) and or vertical ....

Introduction 1.1 Computational geometry Computational geometry is claimed by many computer scientists to be a new field of computer science which began with the thesis of Michael Shamos [l] in 1978. Since that time, spurred by developments in computer graphics, VLSI ....
....While the boundary between the two forms is necessarily fuzzy there are nevertheless instances where they are quite distinct as will become evident when we consider the design of geometric algorithms. It is also useful to distinguish between kinesthetic and visual thinking [12] 31] 36] although the boundary here is also fuzzy and motor theories of vision have been proposed [24] That tactual kinesthetic information exists quite apart from visual information was dramatically demonstrated recently by Louise Pelland [13] 14] She carried out a study in which two groups of ....

....presentation far more than from the presentation mode itself. This could be seen as an appeal for would be visualisers to respect Knuth s ideal of literacy in programming as much as the novelty of new pictorial conventions (Knuth, 1992) In either case literacy, whether verbal or visual (Dondis 1973) relies far more on understanding of structure and dynamics than it does on presentation mode. 3.
