Analysing the Large-Scale, Time-Oriented, VAST 2010 MC2 Dataset with PRISMA

This paper discusses the challenges faced by users and tools in visual analysis of large datasets containing time-oriented data. In order to illustrate the discussion, we solved the mini-challenge 2 (Hospitalization Records) of IEEE VAST 2010 Challenge using the PRISMA tool. PRISMA is an information visualization tool that supports multiple coordinated views between multiple datasets.
