Dynamic Insets for Context-Aware Graph Navigation
Maintaining both overview and detail while navigating in graphs, such as road networks, airline route maps, or social networks, is difficult, especially when targets of interest are located far apart. We present a navigation technique called Dynamic Insets that provides context awareness for graph navigation. Dynamic insets utilize the topological structure of the network to draw a visual inset for off-screen nodes that shows a portion of the surrounding area for links leaving the edge of the...

TimeMatrix: Visualizing Temporal Social Networks
We introduce a new matrix-based graph visualization technique called "TimeMatrix." Because of the matrix-based representation, the layout of a TimeMatrix remains stable even under temporal changes of the graph topology. Furthermore, each TimeMatrix cell contains a small glyph, called a "TimeCell," that shows changes over time in a small space and enables additional temporal analysis.
