IBM - CVUT Student Research Projects 2 Internet Town Observe Internet traffic over time and space Two main targets: -Visualization of Internet Traffic -Control and navigation User Interface -According to user interviews prepared 3 user personas
Provide multiple levels of detail Different levels – Different styles From detailed map to statistic overviews Smooth transition between levels IBM - CVUT Student Research Projects 3
Example Street level style consideration Using proportions Using color spectrum Merge both methods IBM - CVUT Student Research Projects 4
Simply navigate Using well-known principles Users are familiar with Web Map solutions Map draging, edge scrolling, key moving, zooming, rotating Name and address search IBM - CVUT Student Research Projects 5
Time selection to setup animation Simple dialog window Simplified calendar Time resolution Selection of: –Specific Time –Time Period –Repeating Time IBM - CVUT Student Research Projects 6
Testing Multiple testing methods Multiple solutions and variations of LF prototypes Prototypes were tested with 9 participants IBM - CVUT Student Research Projects 7
Conclusions Main ideas Distance-dependent visual representation Straightforward control, familiar principles Future work Fully interactive prototype implementation Possible future enhancements Include advanced map search options Empower 3D capabilites IBM - CVUT Student Research Projects 8
