At the IPP a number of new forms of visualizations of process values have been developed. Several of them have been evaluated by user experiments. In the context of a research project (supported by the Volkswagen Foundation in Germany (Ref. Nr.: I/69 886)) a comparative study with respect to the influence of the interface style on the error rate during classification of process states was undertaken. The paper describes the results and discusses them in a taxonomy context.
