Each visual representation is contained in a tile, and the tiles are arranged in a mosaic of views using a space-filling slice-and-dice layout. Tiles can be created, resized, split, or merged using a versatile set of interaction techniques, and the visual representation of individual tiles can also be dynamically changed to another representation. Because each tile is self-contained and independent, it can be implemented in any programming language, on any platform, and using any visual representation. We also propose a formalism for expressing visualization mosaics. A web-based implementation called MosaicJS supporting multidimensional visual exploration showcases the versatility of the concept and illustrates how it can be used to integrate visualization components provided by different toolkits.}, keywords={}, }
