INTERACTIVE DATA VISULIZATION UTILIZING HDTP TOUCHPAD HDTP TOUCHSCREENS, ADVANCED MULTITOUCH, OR ADVANCED MICE

摘要

A method for interactive data visualization to perform data analysis comprising dataflow processing of information and utilizing mathematical operations designed to accept, operate on, and produce numerical data within the universal range of numbers such as the interval [0,1] or [−1,+1]. In an implementation, visual effects responsive to data values and interactive control produces computer graphics instructions that can be rendered as graphics in a browser and transmitted over a network. Interactive control can also be transmitted over a network so as to provide web access and a collaboration environment. In an implementation the selection of function blocks and the general connectivity among them can be specified by using a drawing tool and a palette of function blocks, and clicking on each function block would cause dialog windows to appear that can be used for setting parameters.
