Demonstrational Interfaces for Visualization and End-User Programming

IRI-9319969 Myers今年是一个连续三年的奖项的第一年，该奖项旨在调查基于脚本和基于对象的演示编程接口的体系结构及其在可视化中的使用。示例性界面的总体概念是允许用户对系统泛化的示例值进行操作。与基于对象的方法相比，基于脚本的接口方法适合在特定给定的脚本跟踪扩展到其他情况时进行泛化。通过概括领域中使用的数据和典型图形的属性，研究了与数据可视化相关的基于对象的方法。最终目标是使自定义界面的设计像在餐巾纸上绘制图片一样简单。

IRI-9319969 Myers This is the first year of a three year continuing award to investigate architectures for script-based and object-based demonstrational programming interfaces and their use in visualization. The overall concept of demonstrational interfaces is to allow the user to operate on example values from which the system generalizes. The approach of script-based interfaces, as contrasted with object-based approaches, lends itself to generalization when a specifically given script trace is extended to other cases. The object-based approach is investigated as it relates to data visualization by generalizing the properties of the data and the typical graphics used in the domain. The ultimate goal is to make the design of a custom interface as simple as sketching a picture on a napkin.
