@conference{371, author = {Tim Lammarsch and Alexander Rind and Wolfgang Aigner and Silvia Miksch}, title = {Developing an Extended Task Framework for Exploratory Data Analysis Along the Structure of Time}, abstract = {Exploratory data analysis of time-oriented data is an important goal that Visual Analytics has to tackle. When users from real-world domains are asked about time-oriented tasks, they often refer to the unique structure of time (e.g., calendars, primitives, etc.). Several task frameworks have been developed, but none of them combines a complete, systematic approach with explicit attention to the structure of time. To fill this gap, we aim for complementing an established task framework with a rule set that explicitly models the structure of time for tasks. This rule set allows to consistently formulate tasks for evaluating time-oriented data analysis methods. }, year = {2012}, journal = {Proceedings of the EuroVis Workshop on Visual Analytics in Vienna, Austria (EuroVA 2012)}, pages = {31-35}, publisher = {Eurographics}, address = {Vienna, Austria}, isbn = {978-3-905673-89-0}, url = {http://publik.tuwien.ac.at/files/PubDat_207621.pdf}, doi = {10.2312/PE/EuroVAST/EuroVA12/031-035}, note = { }, }
