System Visualizations and Functionality FLEXIBILTY! Flexibility, Flexibility… User Driven Options Based on Utility
Arrangements of Visulations u u u Modular interface components • Graphs, charts, maps can be given preference • User specified dashboard Multiple points of Entry • Different visualizations can be set as a starting point • Interface components must be interconnected Multiple levels of detail • Different levels of detail to available to serve the needs of the task at hand • Interface components that are sensitive to different levels of Understanding/ Domain Knowledge
Arrangment / Analysis of Data u u u Ability specify custom “Filters” User specific syndromes • Ability to track self- defined items • Specify personal sentinels Basic data manipulations • Sorting, grouping • Configurable combinations u “I want to see this sysndrome and that one on the same graph” u Specify axes and modes of analysis
User / System Interactions u u u System should have multiple “display” and “notifications” Online monitoring • Quick analytics • Detailed online analisys Offline “printed” information Multiple alerting capabilities • Email, phone, pager etc. . • User configurable opt/in-out Data level Interactions • Exports • Predefined reports
Function u u u Limitations of Data are made Visible Incomplete / Missing data are made Visible User Response / Analysis can be integrated into interface • • • Ability set comments for signals Ability to create a record of signal investigation Must be displayed with analytics so that it is visible
Next Steps Investigate visualization techniques from other fields with similar data structures u Increase level of participation with stakeholders to help determine interface and functional components u Encourage “Outside the Box” design u Formal Evaluation of Current Practices u
