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 
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
        Web as new medium for visualization 
        Web-based visualization techniques (e.g. providing interactive
views of 
        environmental data on the WWW) 
        Typical taxonomies of information visualization (e.g. data, tasks) 
        Web-based development tools for visualization (e.g. VRML, Java) 
        Web-based visualization for data analysis (e.g. structured or 
        unstructured data) 
        Visualization examples (e.g. applications): 
            hierarchical information (e.g. web structures), 
            networks (Web-based network traffic monitoring tool) 
            content-based document clustering (e.g. clustering 
				documents into an 
            information space based on their content) 
            visualization of  Web search results 
            information space metaphors 
            visualization techniques for small devices (e.g. 
				cellular phones, palm tops) 
            empirical studies 
            comparative studies of Information Visualization Applications 
        DataBase Management and Information Retrieval oriented enabling 
        technologies supporting Information Visualization on the Web 
        Enabling technologies supporting the integration of Web-based 
        Information Visualization and Web-based Multimedia 
        Information Visualization supporting Web technologies (e.g. how 
        information visualization can make the Web easier to use) 
        Usage and User-Centered Web-based Information Visualization (e.g.
            how to make information visualization more useful) 
        Web-based decision making resources 
        Data Mining as information technology for clickstream analysis, 
        navigability measurements 
        
          
The papers must clearly show how the technical solutions described
contribute to 
the area of web-based information visualization.
