Abstract:

Visualization is fundamentally about exploration, but most work in visualization focuses on the visual and not the exploration. However, to foster wider adopting and more efficient systems, we need to look at what occurs during visualization. In this work, I discuss the P-Set Model of visualization exploration and how we are using it to improve two computer security visualization systems. I also share a few thoughts on the future of visualization research.
