Information Visualization, Third Edition: Perception for Design (Interactive Technologies)

Buy

Information Visualization: Perception for Design is a comprehensive guide to what the science of human perception tells us about how we should display information.

The human brain is a super-computer for finding patterns in information. Our understanding of visual data and visual information is greatly enhanced or impeded by the way information is presented. It is essential that visual data be designed in such a way that key information and important patterns will stand out. It is only by understanding how perception works that the best visualizations can be created.

Colin Ware outlines the key principles for a wide range of applications and designs, providing designers with the tools to create visualizations of improved clarity, utility and persuasiveness. The book continues to be the key resource for practical design guidelines, based on perception, which can be applied by practitioners, students and researchers alike.

  • Complete update of the recognized source in industry, research, and academic for applicable guidance on information visualizing.
  • Includes the latest research and state of the art information on multimedia presentation.
  • More than 160 explicit design guidelines based on vision science.
  • A new final chapter that explains the process of visual thinking and how visualizations help us to think about problems.
  • Packed with over 400 informative full color illustrations, which are key to understanding of the subject.

Statistical Optics
Statistical Optics
Since the early 1960s it has gradually become accepted that a modern academic training in optics should include a heavy exposure to the concepts of Fourier analysis and linear systems theory. This book is based on the thesis that a similar stage has been reached with respect to the tools of probability and statistics and that some training in the...

Scientific Data Analysis using Jython Scripting and Java (Advanced Information and Knowledge Processing)

Over the course of the past twenty years I have learned many things relevant to this book while working in high-energy physics. As everyone in this field in the yearly to mid-90s, I was analyzing experimental data collected by particle colliders using the FORTRAN programming language. Then, gradually, I moved to C++ coding following...

Embedded Multitasking (Embedded Technology)
Embedded Multitasking (Embedded Technology)
In an embedded system, firmware is the software that directly interfaces with the microcontroller, controlling the systems function. The major forces driving the embedded firmware development process today are reduced development times, increased complexity, and the need to handle multiple tasks simultaneously. These forces translate into strenuous...

Communication in Organizations: Basic Skills and Conversation Models

One of the most important requirements of leadership is effective communication. The idea that some people are natural leaders and that others will never learn to show good leadership is now outdated. It has been replaced by the conviction that leadership and communication skills can be learnt.
