在项目管理或医疗计划等领域，处理时间不确定性是一个关键问题。然而，对时间不确定性的支持并没有很好地集成到当前的方法、技术和工具中。在本文中，我们提出了一种称为PlanningLines的可视化技术，该技术允许表示时间不确定性，旨在支持项目经理执行困难的计划和控制任务。我们进行了一项对照实验，以收集关于我们方法的优势和局限性的经验证据。主要结果是，与传统可视化技术的用户相比，PlanningLine用户犯的错误更少，执行任务的速度也更快。
Dealing with temporal uncertainties is a key issue in domains like project management or medical treatment planning. However, support for temporal indeterminacies is not very well integrated in current methods, techniques, and tools. In this paper, we present a visualization technique called PlanningLines that allows for representing temporal uncertainties and aims at supporting project managers in their difficult planning and controlling tasks. We conducted a controlled experiment to gather empirical evidence on the strengths and limitations of our approach. Main results are that PlanningLine users make fewer mistakes and are faster in conducting tasks than users of a traditional visualization technique.
