Describing and characterising visualisations. (1996)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kennedy, J. B., Mitchell, K. J., & Barclay, P. J. (1996). Describing and characterising visualisations. In 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...

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). DRIVE: An environment for the organised construction of user interfaces to data. In J. Kennedy, & P. J. Barclay (Eds.), Interfaces to Databases (IDS-3): Proceedings of the 3rd International Workshop on I

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). A framework for user-interfaces to databases. In T. Catarci, M. F. Costabile, S. Levialdi, & G. Santucci (Eds.), Proceedings [of the] 3rd International Workshop on Advanced Visual Interfaces, AVI'96 (81

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.

3D information visualisation: Identifying and measuring success (1995)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kennedy, J., Mitchell, K., Barclay, P., & Marshall, B. (1995). 3D information visualisation: Identifying and measuring success. In Proceedings of the 2nd International FADIVA Workshop, 1995

This paper presents some of our views on information visualisation and interfaces to databases with respect to the theme of the workshop.

Using a conceptual data language to describe a database and its interface (1995)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Mitchell, K., Kennedy, J., & Barclay, P. J. (1995). Using a conceptual data language to describe a database and its interface. In C. Goble, & J. Keane (Eds.), Advances in Databases: Proceedings [of the] 13th British National Conference on Database - BNCOD

We propose a conceptual approach to defining interfaces to databases which uses the features of a fully object oriented data language to specify interface objects combined with database objects. This achieves a uniform, natural way of describing data... Read More about Using a conceptual data language to describe a database and its interface.
