Describing and characterising visualisations. (1996)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kennedy, J. B., Mitchell, K. J., & Barclay, P. J. (1996, May). Describing and characterising visualisations. Presented at 3rd FADIVA Workshop

A generic framework for describing and specifying interfaces to databases has been proposed [1]. Currently this
framework is being used as a model for the development of an environment for the construction of user interfaces to object oriented datab... Read More about Describing and characterising visualisations..

A framework for information visualisation (1996)
Journal Article
Kennedy, J., Mitchell, K., & Barclay, P. J. (1996). A framework for information visualisation. SIGMOD record, 25, 30-34

In this paper we examine the issues involved in developing information visualisation systems and present a framework for their construction. The framework addresses the components which must be considered in providing effective visualisations. The fr... Read More about A framework for information visualisation.

DRIVE: An environment for the organised construction of user interfaces to data. (1996)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Mitchell, K., Kennedy, J., & Barclay, P. J. (1996, July). DRIVE: An environment for the organised construction of user interfaces to data. Presented at 3rd International Workshop on User Interfaces to Databases - IDS3, 1996

This paper describes a runtime user-interface development
environment (UIDE) for the novel capability of interactively using and specifying user-interfaces to object-oriented databases (IDSs). A framework provides the foundation for IDSs constructed... Read More about DRIVE: An environment for the organised construction of user interfaces to data..

A framework for user-interfaces to databases (1996)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Mitchell, K., Kennedy, J., & Barclay, P. J. (1996, May). A framework for user-interfaces to databases. Presented at International Workshop on Advanced Visual Interfaces, AVI\'96

A framework for user-interfaces to databases (IDSs) is proposed which draws from existing research on human computer interaction (HCI) and database systems. The framework is described in terms of a classification of the characteristic components of a... Read More about A framework for user-interfaces to databases.
