向处理复杂信息空间的用户提供支持变得越来越重要。这种需求是由越来越多的领域驱动的，在这些领域中，用户需要理解、导航和操纵大量基于计算机的数据集;这种信息的大小和复杂性不断增加;以及有效使用这种信息的压力。典型的例子是万维网，但其他领域包括软件系统，信息系统和并行工程。提供这种支持的一种方法是提供复杂的可视化工具，这些工具引导用户形成对其域的结构和行为的直观理解，并提供允许他们在其系统内操纵对象的机制。本文介绍了这样一个工具和一些可视化技术，它实现。
It is becoming increasingly important that support is provided for users who are dealing with complex information spaces. The need is driven by the growing number of domains where there is a requirement for users to understand, navigate and manipulate large sets of computer based data; by the increasing size and complexity of this information and by the pressures to use this information efficiently. The paradigmatic example is the World Wide Web, but other domains include software systems, information systems and concurrent engineering. One approach to providing this support is to provide sophisticated visualisation tools which lead the users to form an intuitive understanding of the structure and behaviour of their domain and which provide mechanisms which allow them to manipulate objects within their system. The paper describes such a tool and a number of visualisation techniques that it implements.
