Information Visualization by Colin Ware
ISBN: 9780123814647

Publication Date: 2012-05-18

Most designers know that yellow text presented against a blue background reads clearly and easily, but how many can explain why, and what really are the best ways to help others and ourselves clearly see key patterns in a bunch of data? When we use software, access a website, or view business or scientific graphics, our understanding is greatly enhanced or impeded by the way the information is presented. This book explores the art and science of why we see objects the way we do. Based on the science of perception and vision, the author presents the key principles at work for a wide range of applications--resulting in visualization of improved clarity, utility, and persuasiveness.

OpenAthens

The library has implemented a new remote access system for electronic resources. This system replaces the previous EZ proxy system. If you do not have an account, you can self-register at https://register.openathens.net/afit.edu/register.

Getting Started

Welcome to the Systems Engineering and Management LibGuide. Start your initial research with one of our multi-disciplinary databases and our library catalog.

Ebsco Discovery Service (EDS)
EDS searches most of our library’s resources (journals, conference proceedings, tech reports, print books, e-books and more!) through a single search box. It includes most of the electronic resources available through our subscriptions, as well as the print materials
D'Azzo Research Library Catalog
The online catalog of books, journals, and audiovisual resources at the AFIT and AFRL co-located libraries. Registered library card holders may renew and reserve books through this portal.
Scopus
Scopus is a large, multidisciplinary database of peer-reviewed literature: scientific journals, books, and conference proceedings.

Engineering Databases

AccessEngineering
AccessEngineering provides seamless access to the world's best-known, most-used collection of authoritative, regularly updated engineering reference information, such as Perry's Handbook for Chemical Engineers, Marks' Standard Handbook for Mechanical Engineers, or The Standard Handbook for Electrical Engineers. Schaum's Outlines is a very popular series of review books, and they are available from this portal

ACM Digital Library
The ACM DL is a vast collection of citations and full text from ACM transaction journals, newsletters, and conference proceedings
ASME Digital Collection
The AFIT Library subscribes to certain ASME e-journals.
Compendex
A bibliographic database of engineering journals and proceedings, currently containing close to 17 million records and references to more than 3,000 engineering journals and 80,000 conferences. Also, Compendex offers articles-in-press citations from over 1.000 journals.
ICE Virtual Library

The ICE Virtual Library is a search tool to locate all the content from ICE Publishing, the publishing division of the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE). Some of the material has links open access full text, but most of the articles and reports are only accessible through an ICE subscription.
IEEE Xplore

Search thousands of publications from the IEEE and IEE, including journals, conferences and standards covering electrical and computer engineering, electronics, computer science, and physics.
OSTI.gov
SciTech Connect is a portal to free, publicly-available DOE-sponsored R&D results including technical reports, bibliographic citations, journal articles, conference papers, books, multimedia and data information.
ScienceDirect
ScienceDirect is the online portal of Elsevier, one of the world's largest providers of scientific and technical literature, encompassing 1800+ journals, from 1995 forward. AFIT does not subscribe to all journals in ScienceDirect. A green key or flag indicates access. The Library also has access to certain ebooks on this portal.
Springer Materials
A comprehensive database covering multiple material classes, property types, and applications. SpringerMaterials is a research platform for identifying material properties and covers data relevant for materials science, physics, chemistry, engineering, and other related fields.

PubChem
PubChem is an open chemistry database at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). “Open” means that you can put your scientific data in PubChem and that others may use it. Since the launch in 2004, PubChem has become a key chemical information resource for scientists, students, and the general public.
