Abstract

This paper describes a model for expressing coordination in multiple view visualization systems. We present the model and describe a prototype implementation that illustrates the features of the model. Current visualization systems tend to have an informal and inconsistent approach to coordination. Our model takes a formal approach to describing widely used coordination concepts. The model is based on views sharing abstract objects such as the visualization parameters of the dataflow model. Additionaly, this paper describes how current coordinations in exploratory visualization work and how novel coordinations can be constructed using our model.
