Agenda
1. Defining the Workflow
A visual workflow for resources represented
as Linked Open Datafor exploitation, discovery and analysis
of the Web of Data using information exploration techniques
Narrowing
The user gets familiar with the dataset
no explicit assumption regarding the dataset
the dataset itself reveals its underlying model
and the relationships between its resources
Narrowing
Initial overview the broader concepts are demonstrated
Narrowing views narrow the broader concepts.each narrowing view relies on grouping and aggregating resources based on their types and properties
Coordinated View
Most detailed resources cannot be further decomposed
a certain resource or the links between two resources
Coordinates transition between narrowing and broadening views
Broadening
The user is familiar with the dataset
Users explore the dataset on their ownfind novel relations between resources
Views are not limited to the data of the dataset but relevant links to resources of other datasets are also revealed and visualized

4. Discussion and Conclusions
Discussion
ConclusionsUser interfaces based on graph visualizations offer unique, multifaceted experience
when combined with techniques for information explorationand enhanced with optimized search in Linked Data.
enables users to view and navigate through combined aspects of research data
to come up spontaneously with observations whose reasoning can be directly investigated
It contributes to having more users familiar with Linked data and thus an increased demand.
