摘要: This paper describes fractal approaches to the problems which associate with visualizing huge hierarchies. The geometrical characteristic of a fractal, self-similarity, allows users visually interact tree in same manner at every level tree. dimension, measure complexity, makes it possible control total amount displayed nodes. A prototype visualization system for UNIX directories is also shown. >
