The IBM Visualization Data Explorer Symposium was held October 28 and 29, 1996 at the Hyatt Regency, San Francisco Airport, San Francisco, California. The symposium program included tutorials, technical briefings, a panel discussion, papers, and posters. These proceedings contain html versions of the papers and posters presented. Additional documents related to the technical briefings by DX staff are also included.
