Book Description
Angesichts der Veränderung digitaler Sammlungen und ihres wachsenden Umfangs müssen Bibliotheken neue Technologien einsetzen, um den Zugang zu ihrem Bestand zu gewährleisten. Informationsvisualisierung kann eine visuelle Möglichkeit zur effizienten Exploration solcher Sammlungen bieten. In den Bibliotheken fehlt es jedoch an Wissen über die Sichtweise von Nutzenden und an praktischen Richtlinien zur Entwicklung von Visualisierungen. Die vorliegende Arbeit soll dazu beitragen, diese Lücke zu schließen. Erstens konnten aus zwölf Experteninterviews 112 Design-Empfehlungen für die Implementierung von Visualisierungen in Bibliotheken und ein Metamodell für solche Projekte gewonnen werden. Zweitens deutet eine Umfrage mit 242 Teilnehmenden darauf hin, dass die Häufigkeit der Nutzung digitaler Materialien sowie Forschungsthemen das Interesse an Visualisierungen beeinflussen. Drittens wurde mit einem partizipativem Designansatz im Kontext einer Interviewstudie zu Arbeitsweisen von historisch orientierten Theolog*innen eine prototypische Visualisierung mit digitalisierten Briefen aus der Harvard Library entwickelt und in einer Evaluationsstudie als innovativ, effizient und nützlich beurteilt.

User-Centered Evaluation of Visual Analytics
Author: Jean Scholtz
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031026055
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 71
Book Description
Visual analytics has come a long way since its inception in 2005. The amount of data in the world today has increased significantly and experts in many domains are struggling to make sense of their data. Visual analytics is helping them conduct their analyses. While software developers have worked for many years to develop software that helps users do their tasks, this task is becoming more and more onerous, as understanding the needs and data used by expert users requires more than some simple usability testing during the development process. The need for a user-centered evaluation process was envisioned in Illuminating the Path, the seminal work on visual analytics by James Thomas and Kristin Cook in 2005. We have learned over the intervening years that not only will user-centered evaluation help software developers to turn out products that have more utility, the evaluation efforts can also help point out the direction for future research efforts. This book describes the efforts that go into analysis, including critical thinking, sensemaking, and various analytics techniques learned from the intelligence community. Support for these components is needed in order to provide the most utility for the expert users. There are a good number of techniques for evaluating software that hasbeen developed within the human-computer interaction (HCI) community. While some of these techniques can be used as is, others require modifications. These too are described in the book. An essential point to stress is that the users of the domains for which visual analytics tools are being designed need to be involved in the process. The work they do and the obstacles in their current processes need to be understood in order to determine both the types of evaluations needed and the metrics to use in these evaluations. At this point in time, very few published efforts describe more than informal evaluations. The purpose of this book is to help readers understand the need for more user-centered evaluations to drive both better-designed products and to define areas for future research. Hopefully readers will view this work as an exciting and creative effort and will join the community involved in these efforts.

Handbook of Human Centric Visualization
Author: Weidong Huang
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 146147485X
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 742
Book Description
Visualizations are visual representations of non-visual data. They are produced for people to interact with and to make sense of the underlying data. Rapid advances in display technology and computer power have enabled researchers to produce visually appealing pictures. However, the effectiveness of those pictures in conveying the embedded information to end users has not been fully explored. Handbook of Human Centric Visualization addresses issues related to design, evaluation and application of visualizations. Topics include visualization theories, design principles, evaluation methods and metrics, human factors, interaction methods and case studies. This cutting-edge book includes contributions from well-established researchers worldwide, from diverse disciplines including psychology, visualization and human-computer interaction. This handbook is designed for a professional audience composed of practitioners, lecturers and researchers working in the field of computer graphics, visualization, human-computer interaction and psychology. Undergraduate and postgraduate students in science and engineering focused on this topic will also find this book useful as a comprehensive textbook or reference.

More Technology for the Rest of Us
Author: Nancy D. Courtney
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 159158941X
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 181
Book Description
In this valuable book, 11 chapters each overview a technology of interest to librarians working in the field today. From cloud computing to data curation to open-source software, the world of technology offers great opportunity—and potential frustration. Nancy Courtney and her team of IT experts have set out to enhance the former and alleviate the latter. More Technology for the Rest of Us: A Second Primer on Computing for the Non-IT Librarian follows up on Courtney's 2005 technology volume by tackling the most recent advances in IT. Each chapter describes a technology important to the library field, explains how it works in terms a non-IT professional can understand, and describes its uses. The essays in More Technology for the Rest of Us are not meant to make readers experts, but to provide a basic introduction to some of the current technologies impacting libraries and their patrons. Articles are brief and clearly written, and computer jargon is defined and explained. Each chapter lists references for further information, and there is a selected bibliography and glossary at the end of the book.
