Abstract

The W3C's new 'Scalable Vector Graphics' standard provides a new technology for deploying interactive graphical content over the Web. This paper briefly describes SVG and some of its more interesting features. We have developed a principled model for evaluating the suitability of technologies for supporting software visualisation. We briefly outline this model, and then apply it to SVG.
