Abstract

Dynamic queries constitute a very powerful mechanism for information visualization; some universe of data is visualized, and this visualization is modified on-the-fly as users modify the range of interest within the domains of the various attributes of the visualized information. In this paper, we analyze dynamic queries and offer some natural generalizations of the original concept by establishing a connection to SQL. We also discuss some implementation ideas that should make these generalizations efficient as well.
