3^rd International Symposium of Knowledge and Argument Visualization, KV07
	Knowledge Visualization aims at improving the creation and communication of knowledge by complementary visualization methods. While information visualization (IV) concentrates on the use of computer-supported tools to get new insights, knowledge visualization (KV) focuses on the creation and communication of insights. Beyond the interactive visualization of data or the transfer of facts, knowledge visualization aims to further transfer insights, experiences, attitudes, values, expectations, perspectives, opinions, and predictions. Knowledge Visualization has it's roots in Visualization Science and fields such as Psychology, Design, Communication Science, Visual Perception and Cognition, Learning Sciences, and Knowledge Management. Or everywhere where it is a key-issue to make knowledge visible so that it can be better identified, accessed, shared, discussed, applied, and generally managed. Aims The Third International Symposium of Knowledge and Argument Visualization aims at providing an interdisciplinary forum for researchers and practitioners from different disciplines (e.g., Knowledge Visualization, Information Architecture, Argument Visualization, Information Visualization, Knowledge Management, Information Design, Information Architecture, Cognitive Art, Infoaestethics, Interface Design, Virtual Reality, Visual Perception and Cognition, Storytelling) to address and discuss theories, methodologies, techniques, applications, evaluations, and case studies related to Knowledge Visualization. Scope The symposium will seek original papers concerning, but not limited to the following topics: Fundamentals of Knowledge Visualization and Argument Visualization Frameworks and Models for Knowledge Visualization and Argument Visualization Case Studies and evaluations in Knowledge Visualization and Argument Visualization Case Studies on the fruitful use of visual techniques in complex business situations and business processes (e.g., communication of large projects, strategy visualization, process visualizations, and visualization in change processes) Case Studies and Evaluations on the fruitful use of visual techniques in other organizational processes (governmental, research, art, design, entertainment, etc.) Case Studies on the use of visual approaches in corporate communication/sales/marketing/finance Interactive visual techniques in knowledge discovery, knowledge representation, and knowledge application Novel approaches for concept mapping Ambient displays and visual applications that extend the screen, visualization in the space, immersive spaces Storytelling combined with visual formats. Research and case studies on visual metaphors New design perspectives in visualization Visualization of social networks Cognitive design and knowledge media design Qualitative and quantitative methodologies Theoretical and applied approaches to improve the effectiveness of knowledge visualization IV07-KV Advisory and Programme committee Remo Burkhard, University of St. Gallen, http://www.unisg.ch Martin Eppler, University of Lugano, http://www.lu.unisi.ch Michael Meier, vasp datatecture GmbH, http://www.vasp.ch Dominique Brodbeck, http://www.macrofocus.com Michael Granitzer, Know-Center, http://www.know-center.at Wolfgang Kienreich, Know Center, http://www.know-center.at/ Andrew Vande Moere, University of Sydney, http://www.arch.usyd.edu.au Sigmar-Olaf Tergan, Knowledge Media Research Center, http://www.iwm-kmrc.de Greg Judelman, noesis studio, http://www.noesisstudio.com Stefan Bertschi Highlights A main goal of the symposium is to demonstrate and compare different visual techniques, models, and approaches that can be utilized to transfer knowledge. To do so, we will organize a small exhibition on knowledge visualization examples in the main hall of the conference. If you would like to exhibit an example of your work, please contact Remo Burkhard. Further Publication Opportunities We further plan to build a Special Issue on Knowledge Visualization in a Journal or produce an edited book if the quality of the contributions is outstanding.
