Distributed Tracing Visualisation
I am currently carrying out a design study working with collaborators from industry to design improved visualisations for use in distributed tracing analytics. This work involves first understanding the user-facing aspects of distributed tracing, a field that has very little attention. We currently have a paper under submission outlining the findings of our qualitative interview study which characterises the domain and exposes existing problem areas as well as identifying several interesting applications and directions for future visualisation research in this area. This includes work focussing on interlinked visualisations, large data visualisation, and graph comparison along multiple dimensions. This work is currently under submission and is available on request.
