Good for background. Good references. - defines knowledge to be rather specific - divides infovis into 'program visualization' and 'visual programming' ?? more categories than that surely - "a major problem area within Visual Programming is that of identifying suitable representational formalisms" - makes point that no single formalism can be sufficiently general - Musen made program OPAL - uses flowchart to capture procedure for drug assignment - GILT 'takes a graph layout and combines it with icons' - sounds similar to SHriMP - lot of tools based on LISP and showing how it functions and combines - KEATS (Motta et al) is a tool to do visual knolwedge acquisition - the thing missing is empirical validation: so you designed this tool, but who uses it? Is it useful? I've never heard of it nor used its lessons in my work so maybe not - "for many of these systems one of the criteria is that the user be an expert in the domain" - check out ZOO (riekert 1988) - frame based kR and KIM [McAleese] - wonder if these tools have any list of questions they are trying to answer - what is required etc. What work has been done since then? (15 years since) - I think the tools leveraging Prolog or LISP are much too specific. Esp as these languages don't have common interpretations (different versions, different producers, may mean that the tool is not compatible). A truly useful tool will be rather language neutral - task is to find useful abstractions and represent them - that makes the job of getting a good visualization quite simple. - comment on the future- people offer reservations - must address these complaints somewhere - Liebermann - what has this guy done? honestly, the contributions are so nonsensical that it seems he's just some itinerant wandering moron who can't figure out a useful product}, description = {sdasda}, interhash = {562980c081346629bce6bc2caf8942fd}, intrahash = {52942f394b70f8132982ac0012b5d58e}, journal = {International Journal of Man-Machine Studies}, keywords = {modeling information knowledge software cognition acquisition visualization}, pages = {23--49}, priority = {0}, timestamp = {2006-03-24T16:34:33.000+0100}, title = {Visualizing and representing knowledge for the end user - a review}, url = {http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~nernst/papers/viz-knowledge-early.pdf}, volume = 38, year = 1993 }
