Paper Abstract:
|
In this paper a new visualization technique to deal with large sets of items is described. We call it R-Zoom, which stands for Row-splitting Zoom. This technique is applied to the construction of algorithm animations. Discrete animations are built from a sequence of snapshots, which are the stages of the execution of the algorithm. The user has to select which ones will be in the animation, and R-Zoom assists the user in this task. R-Zoom accumulates the time saving feature of zoom interfaces with context information facilities of focus+context interfaces. |
