How can we generalize graph techniques so that we can properly display
information across different applications?
What about an interactive program that users can choose the
representations?
Why don't we see more of program viz out there? For corporations with large source code, it will be very helpful internally for cross-department communications, especially annotations to functions & data structures.

1) In considering Knuth's concept of "literate programmers" with the concept of the Internet, should we then strive to have these "program books" interconnected to create a universal program library out on the Internet?
2) How much of the "program book" is necessary, desirable, or even possible in a normal commercial arena?
3) How do data views like the treemap or the circular tree address the needs of people with poor vision? Can a fisheye view aid in this?
4) How can radial displays demonstrate a savings of space when most monitors are rectangular?

1. What is the best way to publish large programs like, an Operating
System ? One possible way that I can think of is to use hyperlinks
just as the Web does. This can provide the big picture clearly and
the viewer could pick any topic for more detail -- i.e. provides a
very convenient way to navigate around.
2. Online vs. offline media: The chapters mostly talk about offline
media, like printed outputs, to publish programs. Would Online media
provide a better means of doing this ? It is more flexible: one could
search for keywords, for example.

1. For program publishing, will listing of pseudo code side-by-side with certain program blocks help them understood?
2. What is algae view about? Is it really useful?
3. It seems nova visualization does not provide a clean and intuitive interpretation of what is going on and the state of an occuring event. Can any other graphic presentation do better job?

How does the programs as publications idea affect how people program? Would this technique be good for writing code or is it only for documentation purposes?
How might the techniques for graph drawing be applied to larger or more complex graphs? (The graphs in the chapter are pretty simplistic)

In regard to publishing 'C' programs, does SEE assume legacy code only will be published or that it is useful for new development?

Do some animated diagramming methods require training of new users for these users to comprehend them?
What aspects do the various types of animated diagrams show best?

How do we add visualization to programs to make more readable without cluttering things too much?
Tree map - didn't get it?
