*** Deadline Extended to July 30 *** Call for Contributions Visual Analytics for Streaming Data (VASD) A Special Session in Conjunction with VISUAL 2016, The First International Conference on Applications and Systems of Visual Paradigms http://www.iaria.org/conferences2016/VISUAL16.html November 13 - 17, 2016 - Barcelona, Spain Content In this special session we will look at the issues associated with visual analytics for streaming data from several perspectives. When we characterize data streams we see features such as differing volumes, differing velocities (data delivered over unit time periods), multiple data types in a stream, multiple streams that are related but unintegrated, streams with data gaps, and streams with data whose content or context changes over time. Current visualization tools and techniques are often anchored to static repositories. Yet streams are dynamic, which means that the way data is input, manipulated, visualized, analyzed and iterated over must change from our usual approaches. Submissions may present concepts, state of the art research, standards, implementations, running experiments, applications, or industrial case studies. Authors are invited to submit complete unpublished contributions, which are not under review in any other conference or journal in the following topic areas (and we are not limited to these topics): - Specialized visualizations for streaming data environments - "User on the loop" and "user in the loop" visualizations - Streaming data visual analytics environments - Change detection in data streams - Situation awareness - Multi-type data streams visualization - Visualizing patterns in data streams - Visualization and stream mining - Adaptive visualization techniques Contribution deadlines: Submission deadline: July 30 Acceptance notification: August 30 Registration deadline: September 15 Camera-ready deadline: September 30 Please send submissions to: Mark A.
