The IEEE Symposium on Information Visualization is the premier meeting in the emerging field of information visualization. Information visualization involves the visual presentation of information spaces and structures to facilitate their rapid assimilation and understanding. Typically, carefully designed visual representations are used to portray an abstract information space, and mechanisms are provided for the exploration of and interaction with the information space through the corresponding visual representation. In response to feedback from past participants, InfoVis 2001 will incorporate two new presentation categories, short papers and interactive posters. Full papers should be at most 8 printed pages.
Full papers present previously unpublished, original results.
Accepted papers will be included in the symposium proceedings. Papers submitted as full papers may, at the discretion of the program co-chairs, be invited for publication and presentation as short papers. 2nd April 2001 Short papers should be at most 4 printed pages. Accepted short papers will be included in the symposium proceedings. The new interactive poster category includes both traditional posters and demos, either live on a laptop or through video.
