About WIV

Measurement is important to understanding the Internet and related networks, and for more than a decade conferences have been dedicated to network measurement. However, in an age where increasingly large sets of semantically rich data ("big data") is being collected about today's networks, visualization plays an ever more critical role in understanding this data and ultimately the networks themeselves. Yet, technical advances in network visualization often require a different perspective than is typical for network measurements. WIV 2012 seeks to provide a venue to discuss these advances.
