The Information Visualizer, An Information Workspace
S. Card, G. Robertson, and J. Mackinlay. ACM SIGCHI?91 Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, page 181--188. New Orleans Louisiana, ACM, (1991)
Abstract
This paper proposes a concept for the user interface of information retrieval systems called an information workspace. The concept goes beyond the usual notion of an information retrieval system to encompass the cost structure of information from secondary storage to immediate use. As an implementation of the concept, the paper describes an experimental system, called the Information Visualizer, and its rationale. The system is based on (1) the use of 3D/Rooms for increasing the capacity of immediate storage available to the user, (2) the Cognitive Co-processor scheduler-based user interface interaction architecture for coupling the user to information agents, and (3) the use of information visualization for interacting with information structure.

comment
- information retrieval almost always part of some larger task "structure of information processing. General observations deriving from studies of these systems can help us to formulate systems goals for the design of user interfaces for information access. We consider six such observations." interesting approach to an article - observations make an interesting approach to the taxonomy of info retrieval - why and how it can be done. The paper considers how IR can better be solved with UI and vis.
