Abstract. Euler diagrams have been used for centuries as a means for conveying logical statements in a simple, intuitive way. They form the basis of many diagrammatic notations used to represent...

A Method for Testing Graph Visualizations Using Games (2008)

John Bovey, Peter Rodgers

We describe a system that enables us to perform exploratory empirical experiments with graph visualization techniques by incorporating them into games that can be played on an internet site, the...

ISBN: 0-958-46093-0 AUTOMATIC METRO MAP DESIGN TECHNIQUES (2008)

Jonathan M. Stott, Peter Rodgers

We describe a computer-based system to automatically lay out metro maps using multicriteria optimization. The starting layout for the method is the geographic layout or a sketch of the map. The...

INTRODUCTION It is a great pleasure to speak at the LSE today. This is the institution that I came to as an undergraduate in 1977, and then stayed for nearly 14 years, both, as a student and as a...

Visual Execution and Data Visualisation in Natural Language Processing (2007)

Peter Rodgers, Robert Gaizauskas, Kevin Humphreys, Hamish Cunningham

We describe GGI, a visual system that allows the user to execute an automatically generated data flow graph containing code modules that perform natural language processing tasks. These code modules...

Environment and Usage Monitoring of Electronic Products for Health Assessment and Product Design (2005)

Nikhil Vichare, Peter Rodgers, Valérie Eveloy, Michael Pecht

Abstract: The life-cycle environmental and usage conditions of a product or system can be monitored and analyzed to assess its on-going health, provide advance warning of failure, and provide...

Tableaux for diagrammatic reasoning (2005)

Octavian Patrascoiu, Simon Thompson, Peter Rodgers

Diagrammatic notations, such as the Unified Modeling Language (UML), are in common use in software development. They allow many aspects of software systems to be described diagrammatically, but...

Knowledge visualization: a comparative study between project tube maps and gantt charts (2005)

Remo Aslak Burkhard, Michael Meier, Peter Rodgers, Matthias Thomas, Jelle Smis, Jonathan Stott

Abstract: This paper compares the effectiveness of the Project Tube Map and the Gantt Chart for interfunctional communication in large projects where different stakeholders are involved.

Drawing graphs in Euler diagrams (2004)

Paul Mutton, Peter Rodgers, Jean Flower

Abstract. We describe a method for drawing graph-enhanced Euler diagrams using a three stage method. The first stage is to lay out the underlying Euler diagram using a multicriteria optimizing...

Graph drawing techniques for geographic visualization (2004)

Peter Rodgers

Geovisualizers often need to represent data that consists of items related together. Such data sets can be abstracted to a mathematical structure, the graph. A graph contains nodes and edges where...

Embedding OCL Expressions in YATL (2004)

Octavian Patrascoiu, Peter Rodgers

Abstract. Modeling is a technique used extensively in industry to define software systems, the UML being the most prominent example. With the increased use of modeling techniques has come the desire...

Architecture and Design of an XML Application Platform (2004)

Russell Perry, Peter Rodgers, Royston Sellman

this report, we introduce the XML Application Platform (XAP), which aims to address this need. The XAP is shown to have wide application to any domain where XML processing is encountered. We also...

Movement as an Aid to Understanding Graphs (2003)

John Bovey, Peter Rodgers, Florence Benoy

This paper describes a graph visualization method that attempts to aid the understanding of graphs by adding continuous local movement to graph diagrams. The paper includes a discussion of some of...

Prediction of Microelectronics Thermal Behavior in Electronic Equipment: Status, Challenges and Future Requirements (2003)
