Directed Graphs and Rectangular Layouts (Extended Abstract) | 2009-01-01 | AT&T Intellectual Property |
| This paper deals with the problem, arising in practice, of drawing a directed graph as a collection of disjoint, isothetic rectangles, where the rectangles of the nodes of each edge must touch and where the placement of the rectangles respects the ordering of the edges. It provides characterizations for those graphs having the special type of rectangular layout known as a rectangular dual. It then characterizes the st-graphs having rectangular layouts in terms of the existence of certain planar embeddings and the non-existence of a particular subgraph. | |||

Progressive Display for Efficient Visualization: Eliminating Sluggishness of Heavy Geometry Data Using Progressive Display | 2009-01-01 | Geometric |
| Progressive display technologies attempt to solve the problem of visualizing large size 3D data, by optimizing the requirement of computing capacities to process and render the data progressively, targeted at the area of interest in the data set. These applications can bring in significant efficiencies in areas like oil & gas, land surveys, and in archeology for artifact scanning which involves a lot of reverse engineering for digital model reconstruction. Progressive display also extends the capabilities of telemedicine applications, by enabling them to handle large 3D image data over remote and wireless mobile devices. The networking capabilities of such applications enable effective collaboration on visualized data over a network.

OneTravelSource.com and Google Maps for Enterprise | 2009-01-01 | |
| OneTravelSource.com is a website for travelers, offering discount airfare, hotel rates, car rentals, customized trips, and last minute getaways. OneTravelSource.com had been using a company called I-Maps for their mapping services but the biggest limitation was that the maps were not scrollable. Also, had no control over the icons and searches were limited to North America, a real problem for a company offering international travel options. OneTravelSource.com deployed Google Maps as well as MapQuest which has encouraged users to click through more often. It had ability to put the company's hotel icons and additional information directly on a map, rather than the old way, which simply brought up an image map and also required more clicks.
