Workshop on Data Exploration for Interactive Surfaces at ITS'15
November 15, 2015 - Madeira, Portugal
|
Co-located with ITS 2015, the ACM International Conference on Interactive Tabletops and Surfaces.
News
IMPORTANT: The ITS conference has extended the early-bird registration deadline for workshop attendees and, thus, we follow other workshops and extend the submission deadline to September 30th
Topic of the workshop
Dexis 2015 focuses on the use of interactive surfaces for visual data exploration.
Interactive tabletops and surfaces provide rich opportunities for data
visualization and analysis, and consequently are used more and more in
such settings. They provide benefits in various ways, e.g.,
- Data can be accessed and analyzed anywhere and at any time (e.g., on tablets or on public displays),
- Novel visualization designs and interaction experiences
contribute to a rich user experience, promoting the use of visualization
systems even to non-experts, and
- Data analysis is increasingly turning into a collaborative
process, and interactive surfaces offer promising possibilities for
computer-supported collaborative analysis.
Despite these benefits, much remains to be
learned about the effects of providing a visual data exploration
experience on interactive surfaces: Interactive surfaces often come in
the forms of larger screens, smaller screens, more screens, higher pixel
counts, and multiple simultaneous inputs, all of which create demanding
challenges for visualization and interaction designers. In addition, we
need to learn more about designing surface-based visualization systems
with a high user experience, find out about scenarios that are suited
for such systems, and unveil the added value of surface-based
visualization applications in realistic settings.
Together, we will discuss research dedicated to visualization systems
for interactive surfaces, define open research questions in the field,
and develop a research agenda aiming to shape future research in the
field.
