Computer Science Rule-Based Database Visualization This thesis introduces a framework to create versatile 3-dimensional visualizations to symbolically represent records in a dataset. It provides a description of the flexibility in this framework to handle special visualization needs of individual datasets without writing custom software. As a part of this framework there is a database engine, rules engine, template editor and a graphics engine. The rules engine allows for application specific rule definition that requires knowledge about the data. Rules are defined to show variations in the data through symbols. Additionally, the rules identify where in the 3D world the symbols are to be placed. The template editor also requires knowledge of the application domain in order to build specific 3D models (symbols) for a specific 3D world. Within the template, regions must be defined that are used by the rules engine to position the symbols appropriately within the 3D world. Only the rules and the template model need be substituted to alter such a visualization system to diverse applications.A rule-based database 3D visualization system has been constructed based on this framework. As a test of this system, a 3D library was created based on a dataset of books. Rules and templates are defined to represent data about the books. 2011-08-17 English text University of Akron / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=akron1312664305 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=akron1312664305 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
