IS U570 Human Computer Interaction -- Fall 2004 - Project #2 Finding InfoVis Papers

Professor Futrelle - College of Computer and Information Sciences, Northeastern U., Boston, MA

Version of 24 October 2004


Part of your assignment is to find and hand in one or more InfoVis papers


Finding one paper is required. Finding a second one, from a distinct source, will increase your project grade by 2% (not two course points). Finding a third paper, also from a distinct source, will give a total increase of 5% for your project grade. By distinct source, I mean for example, that one could be from an IEEE publication, another from an ACM publication and still another from neither IEEE or ACM. Below, I give you three useful leads toward finding papers.

Journals and proceedings of the IEEE and ACM can be found and downloaded using the NU Library website. Another useful source is papers posted to CiteSeer. You can search those sites directly using the search options that they provide. Alternative, you can try the following Google search strings which can be quite helpful.

An example of a paper easily obtained through CiteSeer is:
Graph Visualization and Navigation in Information Visualization: a Survey (2000) by Ivan Herman, Guy Melançon, M. Scott Marshall in IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, located at http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/herman00graph.html This is a paper with 47 citations on CiteSeer, quite a good number.
