Aufgabenstellung

Beschreibung der Aufgabe 4

Gegebene Daten

Homer Simpson's Trinkverhalten in Abhängigkeit von seinen Lebensumständen

...Visualisierung von Homer's Lebensabschnitten bzw. Ereignissen mit Einfluss auf sein Trinkverhalten (zB.: Kindheit, Pubertät, Arbeitslosigkeit, Beziehungen, Hochzeit, Geburt der Kinder, Liebeskummer, Alltag, etc.) von seiner Geburt bis Jetzt + mögliche Zukunftsszenarien (mind. 3).

  • Die Menge folgender Getränke soll für die jeweiligen Lebensumstände ablesbar sein

(ml oder Liter - je nachdem - pro Tag, Monat, Jahr (z.B.: Fokus+Kontext Methoden):

 a) Wasser
b) Milch
c) Fruchtsaft
d) Cola
e) Kaffee (Würfelzucker?)
f) Bier

(vereinfacht angenommen, Homer trinkt ausschließlich diese Getränke)

  • Die folgenden Werte sollen abhängig von den konsumierten Getränken ablesbar sein:
 1) g oder kg konsumierter Zucker (aus Getränken) + empfohlene Maximaldosis pro Tag, Monat, Jahr 
   (empfohlene Maximaldosis/Tag: 50g; enthaltener Zucker: 10g/100 ml Cola; 10g/100 ml Fruchtsaft; 3g/Würfelzucker).
2) mg konsumiertes Coffein + empfohlene Maximaldosis pro Tag, Monat, Jahr (empfohlene Maximaldosis/Tag: 600mg; enthaltenes Coffein: 10 mg/100 ml Cola; 80 mg/100 ml Kaffee).
3) g konsumierter Alkohol + empfohlene Maximaldosis pro Tag, Monat, Jahr (empfohlene Maximaldosis/Tag: 20g; enthaltener Alkohol: 3,6 g/100ml Bier)


  • Die Daten sollen zur medizinischen/psychologischen Analyse visualisiert werden.

  • Die bisher erlernten Design-Prinzipien sollen umgesetzt werden (z.B.: Optimierung der Data-ink ratio).

  • Die Mockups sollten zumindest 1) Homer's Leben im Überblick 2) und eine Detailansicht wiedergeben.

  • Alle nicht angeführten Daten können frei erfunden werden.

General description and background

Field of application

The visualisation will be used by experts for medical and psychological analysis. The visualisation shall provide information of a single patient, and give details about their consumption of several different drinks (water, milk, juice, coke, coffee, and beer), and the thus resulting consumption of sugar, caffeine and alcohol. It shall be possible to visualise both a time-line overview of these consumptions, as well as detailed views for specific periods in time. Additionally, certain periods of life, such as childhood or puberty, and specific events and happenings such as unemployment, wedding(s), or birth of the children, shall be indicated.

Analysis of the data set

The data set contains information about certain ingredients of drinks, and the recommended maximum dose per day, as follows:

Sugar Caffeine Alcohol
Water
Milk
Juice (100ml) 10g
Coffee (100ml) 80mg
Lump sugar (per piece) 3g
Coke (100ml) 10mg 10g
Beer (100ml) 3.6g
Daily dose 50g 600mg 20g


Data types

  • The consumption of drinks, as well as their ingredients, are continuous data.
  • The points in time where measurements are taken are of ordinal type.
  • The periods of life are of nominal kind; they can be distinguished, but they cannot be ordered, as they might be overlapping.

Data structures

  • Our data is two-dimensional, one dimension being the time of the consumption, the other being the type of drink being consumed.
  • The consumption of ingredients, can be derived from the consumption of drinks, and is thus no specific dimension of it's own.
  • The time-dimension itself can be given in hierarchically arranged units (days, weeks, months, ...)

Analysis of the target group

The intended target group of the visualisation are physicians and nutritionist. Thanks to their education they can interpret of the data and thus do primary need hints what different values imply but require guidance to navigate through the data and conceive it.

On the other hand it cannot be assumed that the users have technical knowledge of interactive systems or are willing to acquire it, therefore the visualisation must be intuitive and as far as possible self descriptive.
