HCIL's early successes with information visualization was accelerated during the summer visits of Christopher Ahlberg who worked under Ben Shneiderman's guidance during 1991 and 1993.

HCIL's early successes with information visualization was accelerated during the summer visits of Christopher Ahlberg who worked under Ben Shneiderman's guidance during 1991 and 1993.One of the two key papers published in the 1994 ACM CHI Conference became the most widely referenced HCI paper , according to CiteSeer. Ahlberg formed Spotfire in 1996, and as CEO led it to a 200-person company, which was bought during summer 2007 by TIBCO . The HCIL-inspired Spotfire product is used by most pharmaceutical companies for drug discovery and genomic data analysis, and is increasing adopted for... read more

Growing interest in treemap visualizations for hierarchical data have led to a successful licensing agreement for HCIL's Treemap 4.1 program to the HiveGroup, Inc.

Growing interest in treemap visualizations for hierarchical data (electronic product catalogs, sales analysis, manufacturing quality control, supply chain supervision, etc.) have led to a successful licensing agreement for HCIL's Treemap 4.1 program to the HiveGroup, Inc. . The license, arranged by the UM Office of Technology Commercialization, brings $108,000 over three years and ensures that treemaps will be applied to a wide variety of applications.The treemap algorithm was originally developed by Ben Shneiderman , refined in collaboration with Catherine Plaisant , and later extended in... read more
