Energy is the Defining Challenge of Our Time
• Buildings in U.S.
– 40% of primary energy/carbon,
73% of electricity, 34% of gas
Global energy consumption
will increase 50% by 2030
• Buildings in China
– 60% of urban building floor
space in 2030 has yet to be built
• Buildings in India
– 67% of all building floor space
in 2030 has yet to be built
“Upgrading the energy efficiency of America’s buildings is one of the fastest, easiest, and
cheapest
ways to save money, cut down on harmful pollution, and create good jobs…”

PCP Bin Rendering
• Transfer Function Coloring:
– Occupancy or Leading Axis

PCP Line Rendering
• Can use coloring to denote amount of lines.
• Example:
PCP Line Rendering
• Advantages:
– All data items are precisely represented
– Best suited for numerical variables
• Disadvantages:
– Render time proportional to size of data
– Suffers from overplotting
– Not well suited for categorical data
Parallel Coordinates
• Aggregate lines into 2D histogram bins
between every pair of axes.

PCP Binning
• Bins can be rendered faster than lines
• Can control accuracy of numerical axes by
varying the histogram size
• Provides more flexible rendering styles for
categorical axes:
– Category Stacking
– Proportional Sizing

Parameter Sweep Issues
• Can use context to reveal missing portions of parameter
sweep.
• Potential Error: ‘Attic’ duct location only connects to three
roofing types.
