COMPUTER-HUMAN INTERFACE ISSUES IN THE DESIG N OF AN INTELLIGENT WORKSTATION FOR SCIENTIFI C VISUALIZATIO N MARIAN G . WILLIAMS STUART SMIT H GIAMPIERO PECELL I Abstract The long-range goal of our research is to create a n intelligent assistant for interactive scientific data visualization via both sight and sound . There are a variety of computer-human interface (CHI) issues that are unique to our approach to interactive visualization . It is upon thes e issues that we focus here. In this paper, we : (1) describe the approach to interactive visualization taken by th e project which is the context of our work ; (2) specify th e CHI issues that are peculiar to this approach ; (3 ) summarize the current capabilities of our workstation fo r performing human factors experiments ; (4) describe the research plan we have developed for learning how to provid e a user with intelligent assistance for dealing with thos e issues ; (5) present a representative pilot study that ha s contributed useful information ; (6) summarize the results o f our pilot studies; and (7) discuss the direction of our futur e work . We do not claim to
