Visualization is pervasive in many disciplines and has many applications but there is the paradox that it can be complex itself. It is important that the issues that surround visualization techniques such as scalability, automation, perception, and interaction are able to be refined without recourse to implementing a visualization tool for another discipline. This workshop will focus on research into those theories that provide a foundation on which Visualization can grow. Most published works resolve around solutions to particular domain problems. There is no body of work which definitively identifies what techniques or methods work better on a given type of data, leading to much ground being retread by different researchers.
Many similar questions abound in visualization.
Many similar questions need answering, especially if non-visualization experts are to develop visualizations that are effective. Visualization is another part of the creation of software and thus deserves to have suitable theories developed to guide users. Please submit papers in pdf format.
