Basole\u003C\/a\u003E\u0026nbsp;is an Associate Professor in the School of Interactive Computing, the Associate Director of the Tennenbaum Institute\/IPaT, and a faculty member in the GVU Center at Georgia Tech. He is also a Visiting Scholar in the mediaX\/H*STAR Institute at Stanford University. His research and teaching focuses on computational enterprise science, information visualization, and strategic decision support. Current research includes the design, development, and application of novel visual analytic tools for understanding complex business ecosystems and enterprises in a diverse set of industries including technology, healthcare, energy, and global manufacturing. His work has received numerous best paper awards and he has extensively published in leading computer science, informatics, management, and engineering journals. Prof. Basole is an editorial board member of the\u0026nbsp;Journal of Enterprise Transformation\u0026nbsp;and\u0026nbsp;INFORMS Service Science. Dr. Basole received a Ph.D. in industrial and systems engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nFor the past two years,\u0026nbsp;\u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/gatech.us2.list-manage1.com\/track\/click?u=a29f4ab2c992525ddd2413264\u0026amp;id=b1bbea5244\u0026amp;e=e91b22b850\u0022 target=\u0022_blank\u0022\u003EDr. Alex Endert\u003C\/a\u003E\u0026nbsp;served as a visual analytics research scientist at\u0026nbsp;the Pacific Northwest\u0026nbsp;National Laboratory, where he worked on visual data\u0026nbsp;exploration, human-computer\u0026nbsp;interaction, and information visualization. His\u0026nbsp;research interests center around\u0026nbsp;exploring novel user interaction techniques\u0026nbsp;for visual data analysis. He explores ways that visualization and data mining techniques can\u0026nbsp;couple the subjective domain\u0026nbsp;expertise of people with the rigorous\u0026nbsp;computational abilities of machines. He is\u0026nbsp;an active member of, and contributor to,\u0026nbsp;premier venues for human-computer\u0026nbsp;interaction and information visualization (ACM\u0026nbsp;CHI, IEEE VIS, IEEE TVCG,\u0026nbsp;IEEE CG\u0026amp;A). He received his doctorate in computer\u0026nbsp;science at Virginia Tech in\u0026nbsp;2012, where he worked with Chris North. In\u0026nbsp;2013, his work on semantic\u0026nbsp;interaction was awarded the IEEE VGTC VPG Pioneers\u0026nbsp;Group Doctoral\u0026nbsp;Dissertation Award and the Virginia Tech Computer Science Best\u0026nbsp;Dissertation\u0026nbsp;Award.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/gatech.us2.list-manage1.com\/track\/click?u=a29f4ab2c992525ddd2413264\u0026amp;id=9e8a4c9150\u0026amp;e=e91b22b850\u0022 target=\u0022_blank\u0022\u003EDr. John Stasko\u003C\/a\u003E\u0026nbsp;received the B.S. degree in Mathematics at Bucknell University in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania (1983) and Sc.M. and Ph.D. degrees in Computer Science at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island (1985 and 1989). He joined the faculty here at Georgia Tech in 1989, and his primary research area is human-computer interaction. He is the Director of the Information Interfaces Research Group which\u0026nbsp;is uncovering ways to help people benefit from this flood of information. One central focus of a number of their projects is the creation of Information Visualization tools to help people understand large data sets. Another project focus is on evaluating anthropomorphic software agents\/characters that are used as aids or filters in user interfaces.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Ctable border=\u00220\u0022 cellpadding=\u00220\u0022 cellspacing=\u00220\u0022 class=\u0022x_mcnTextBlock\u0022 width=\u0022100%\u0022\u003E\r\n\t\u003Ctbody class=\u0022x_mcnTextBlockOuter\u0022\u003E\r\n\t\u003C\/tbody\u003E\r\n\u003C\/table\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Georgia Tech has more than 10 accepted papers and posters from faculty and students at IEEE VIS 2016, Oct. 23-28, the premier international research conference for information visualization, visual analytics, and scientific visualization."}],"uid":"27980","created_gmt":"2016-10-17 14:25:06","changed_gmt":"2017-04-13 21:14:17","author":"Alyson Key","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2016-10-20T12:30:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2016-10-20T14:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2016-10-20T14:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2016-10-20 16:30:00","gmt_time_end":"2016-10-20 18:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2016-10-20 18:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"69599","name":"IPaT"},{"id":"531101","name":"Tennenbaum Institute"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78761","name":"Faculty\/Staff"},{"id":"78771","name":"Public"},{"id":"78751","name":"Undergraduate students"},{"id":"174045","name":"Graduate students"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
