Users who must combine demographic, economic or other data in a geographic context are often hampered by the integration of tabular and map representations. Static, paper-based solutions limit the amount of data that can be placed on a single map or table. By providing an effective user interface, we believe that researchers, journalists, teachers, and students can explore complex data sets more rapidly and effectively. This paper presents Dynamaps, a generalized map-based information visualization tool for dynamic queries and brushing on choropleth maps. Users can use color coding to show a variable on each geographic region, and then filter out areas that do not meet the desired criteria. In addition, a scatterplot view and a details-on-demand window support overviews and specific fact-finding.

In exploring how to make programming easier for non-programmers, research into end-user environments has traditionally been concerned with designing better human-computerinteraction. That traditional focus has left open the question of how end-user environments might support human-humaninteraction. Especially in situations in which end-user environments are enlisted to facilitate learning, we hypothesize that a key benefit may be their ability to mediate conversations about a domain of interest. In what ways might end-user environments support human communication, and what design features make them well-suited to do so? Drawing on ethnographic studies of an undergraduate algorithms course in which students constructed and presented algorithm visualizations, we develop a provisional framework of six communicative dimensions of end-user environments: programming salience, typeset fidelity, story content, modifiability, controllability and referencability. To illustrate the design implications of these dimensions, we juxtapose conventional algorithm visualization technology with a prototype end-user environment specifically designed to facilitate communication about algorithms. By characterizing those aspects of end -user environments that impact social interaction, our framework provides an important extension to T.R.G. Green and M. Petre's (1996) cognitive dimensions.

This paper presents PROMAN (PROduction MANagement), a software solution applied to production management optimization for a company with an extensive variety of human and material resources and with a nonlinear production chain. The adopted solution is based on the use of generic office applications that will improve the usability of the system. On the other hand, a specific module for the visualization of Gantt charts has been developed that adjusts to the present application and to user requirements. "Associacio/spl acute/ Shalom", an SME that needs the solution that we present, will use the results of this project.

Studies in visual search have shown that feedback training can improve visual inspection performance (speed and accuracy), provided it is given in a timely and appropriate manner. Traditionally, performance feedback, i.e. information about the outcome, serves as the basis of most feedback training schemes. Other forms of feedback, which provide search strategy information, may have a role to play in improving inspection performance. This form of feedback is referred to as ‘cognitive feedback’. This paper describes the setup for collecting and analyzing eye movements using a 3D binocular eye tracker, which serves as a tool for providing cognitive feedback training. It also emphasizes the various technical issues related with eye tracker integration and further discusses the use of a new 3D-fixation recognition algorithm.
