(Formerly known as Invis.au)

January 27 - 29, 2005, Sydney, Australia
http://www.cs.usyd.edu.au/~visual/apvis/

Information visualisation involves the visual representation,
presentation and exploration of abstract information. Successful
visualisation is a powerful tool with which to tackle the increasing
size and complexity of data sets in a wide range of application areas.
Examples of application domains include capital markets, software
structure, military logistics, social networks, program traces and
bio-informatics. The discipline includes elements of many fields,
including human-computer interaction, computer graphics, cognitive
psychology, statistics, graphic design, algorithms, virtual and
augmented reality, and software engineering. The Asia Pacific
Information Visualisation Symposium provides an opportunity for the
community of researchers in the Asia-Pacific region to share the
progress that has been made toward the fulfilment of this promise with
colleagues from other parts of the world.
