	Using Treemaps for data visualization? by Francesco Vivoli :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message Hi all I don't know if you guys had the chance of reading this blog post: http://radajo.blogspot.com/2008/09/security-book-review-applied-security.html .In case not a short cite: "Although we (infosec pros) are familiarized with link graphs to represent relationships between botnet members or hosts, the book provides a whole set of charts for different purposes; one of the most useful types, and we are not very used too it in the security field, is treemaps." I've read a bit here and there and I found them a neat way of displaying multi-variate datasets. You can find the main page at: http://www.cs.umd.edu/hcil/treemap-history/ For the impatients: there's an OS java implementation of the main algorithms. At least I think this topic deserves a bit of study, I've a gut feeling that we might be able to get rid of boring tables if correctly planned:) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Atalaya-developer mailing list Atalaya-developer@... https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/atalaya-developer

I doubt it's possible to eliminate all tables. But that would work at least as an alternative way of representing data. -Roman On Thu, Sep 11, 2008 at 7:31 PM, Francesco Vivoli <f.vivoli@...> wrote: Hi all I don't know if you guys had the chance of reading this blog post: http://radajo.blogspot.com/2008/09/security-book-review-applied-security.html .In case not a short cite: "Although we (infosec pros) are familiarized with link graphs to represent relationships between botnet members or hosts, the book provides a whole set of charts for different purposes; one of the most useful types, and we are not very used too it in the security field, is treemaps."

	Re: Using Treemaps for data visualization? by giacomoc :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message well, if the objective is to induce violent headaches I think tree maps are just perfect, I think that it might be useful to introduce a tree menu in order to rationalize tables hierarchy and ease navigation between them. Nevertheless I suggest to focus on the agreed development plan before introducing new elements to it.
