BIB-VERSION:: CS-TR-v2.0 ID:: UCB//S2K-93-35 ENTRY:: February 25, 1994 TITLE:: A Visualization Architecture for the Sequoia 2000 Project DATE:: AUTHOR:: Kochevar, Peter AUTHOR:: Ahmed, Zahid AUTHOR:: Wanger, Len AUTHOR:: Shade, Colin AUTHOR:: Sharp, Jonathan PAGES:: 20 ABSTRACT:: An architecture is described for the Tioga Visualization Management System which is under development as part of the Sequoia 2000 Project. This system brings together the capabilities of a database management system a scientific visualization system, and a graphical user-interface builder. The paper concentrates on the front-end of Tioga which is interactive visualizations of data that reside in a database management system. The Visualization Executive achieves this goal by mixing techniques from knowledge-based systems with those of scientific visualization and user-interface design. The intent is to free scientists as much as possible from having to deal with the process of doing science so that they can concentrate on the science itself.
