Protovis: A Graphical Toolkit for Visualization

MICHAEL BOSTOCK. Protovis: A Graphical Toolkit for Visualization[J/OL]. 2009. [2020–05–10]. http://vis.stanford.edu/papers/protovis.

• Chart typology , 图表分类
• 提出了 declarative specification , 其中一些术语 (mark) ，之后的 Vega 有借鉴，此论文可作为其前置阅读。

Reactive Vega: A Streaming Dataflow Architecture for Declarative Interactive Visualization

SATYANARAYAN A, RUSSELL R, HOFFSWELL J, 等. Reactive Vega: A Streaming Dataflow Architecture for Declarative Interactive Visualization[J]. IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, 2016, 22(1): 659–668. DOI:10.1109/TVCG.2015.2467091.

如标题所述，论述的主要是 reactive 和声明式的架构设计

• dataflow graph
• 操作符(Operator) 也是有声明式的表示的
