DataVisualization

The goal is to turn data intoinformation, and informationinto insight.(CarlyFiorina,2004)

The purpose of visualizationis insight, not pictures.(BenShneiderman,1999)

WebApplicationversusSoftwareVisualization

1. Interactivedisplayandmanipulationofdata

2. Noinstallationrequired

3. Easytodevelopandsharewithclientsandprojectteams

4. Opensourcelibraries

The impact of data scientists' work depends on how wellothers can understand their insights to take further actions.(Jorge Castañón, 2016)

Past:ImperativeWebFrameworks

The controller is essential and explicit: you have tospecify what to do when you receive user requests andwhat resources you are going to mobilize to carry outthe necessary tasks outlined in the model.

(Ribeiro 2016)

TheModel-View-ControllerwasinventedatXeroxParcbyTrygveReenskaugin1979.

Present:ReactiveWebFrameworks

Reactive Systems are highly responsive, givingusers effective interactive feedback.
