THEME

Information visualization combines aspects of scientific
visualization, human-computer interaction, data mining, imaging and
graphics. It focuses on information which is often abstract. This
means that many interesting classes of information have no natural and
obvious physical representation. A key research problem is to discover
new visual metaphors for representing information and to understand
which analytical tasks they support.

The largest information space is perhaps the World Wide Web, which
contains millions of pages. Information visualization in this domain
enables users to get information quickly, put it in a meaningful
shape, and to make decisions in a relatively short time. Web-based
information visualization describes visualization applications that
use the Web as an information source, a delivery mechanism for
visualization, or both.  The aim of this workshop is to bring together
researchers and practitioners who are working in key technology areas
of Information Visualization in order to discuss recent research
findings and address complementary research and development issues. Of
particular interest are papers describing different visualization
techniques to make use of the information available in the net or how
Web-techniques can be used to visualize information
