At present, we are surrounded by all kinds of the information, but the rich and diversified information resources also brought about the chaos, so that the query of the messages is no way to start. In fact, the information resources can provide us with more convenience, but we have to spend a lot of energy to organize and filter the information, and the costs and the time of the investment are immeasurable. Usually, the information we want to query is often easy to understand, and the information design uses the more intuitive and vivid computing means to achieve the visualization of the big data, in order to reflect the beauty of the big data.展开更多
