Abstract :
This article presents the idea of a unifying framework that allows visual representations of information to be customized and mixed together into new ones. The net result is a fine-grained approach to representing data, better suited to accessing and rendering it over networks. Although the focus is on geometric models and 3D shape representations, many issues discussed are relevant to network-based visualization in general.
