Human Aspects of Visualization
This book constitutes the referred proceedings of the First IFIP WG 13.7 International Workshop on Human Aspects of Visualization, HCIV 2009, held in Uppsala, Sweden, in August 2009, as a satellite workshop of INTERACT 2009. The 11 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. These articles in this book give an overview of important issues concerning human-computer interaction and information visualization. They highlight the research required to understand what aspects of analysis match human capabilities most closely and how interactive visual support should be designed and adapted to make optimal use of human capabilities in terms of information perception and processing.

The commentaries are illustrative, insightful and thought provoking, helping the reader interpret and apply the themes of the designs in life.

Introduction to Information Visualization
Information Visualization is a relatively young field that is acquiring more and more concensus in both academic and industrial environments. 'Information Visualization' explores the use of computer-supported interactive graphical representations to explain data and amplify cognition. It provides a means to comunicate ideas or facts about the data, to validate hypotheses, and facilitates the discovery of new facts via exploration. This book introduces the concepts and methods of Information Visualization in an easy-to-understand way, illustrating how to pictorially represent structured and unstructured data, making it easier to comprehend and interpret. Riccardo Mazza focuses on the human aspects of the process of visualization rather than the algorithmic or graphic design aspects.
