Understanding photowork (2006, background): “For browsing, the common strategy has been to maximize the use of screen real-estate and present as many images as possible at any given time [1,7].”
How do people manage their digital photographs? (2003, background): “PhotoMesa [2] utilises novel layout mechanisms to make the best usage of screen space when displaying a photo collection, but relies on the user having already done some organisation of it.”
Ordered and quantum treemaps: Making effective use of 2D space to display hierarchies (2002, methodology): “It might also be fruitful to explore variants of treemap layouts that can update smoothly by using past layouts as a guide to current ones, or by using tiles that can have nonrectangular shapes [Bederson 2001].”
A review of overview+detail, zooming, and focus+context interfaces (2009, methodology): “…application domains have been explored using these tookits, including drawing tools for children (Druin, Stewart, Proft, Bederson and Hollan 1997), authoring tools (Furnas and Zhang 1998), image browsers (Bederson 2001), and software visualization (Summers, Goldsmith, Kubica and Caudell 2003).”
