Abstract
The visualization of information in computers is a necessary work in professional and personal scopes, because nowadays a big amount of information is represented, or at least accompanied, by visual representations in order to give a better interpretation to the viewers. However, two main problems are shown for this topic. By one hand the information could be of different types (nominal, text, ordinal and graphics to name a few) and they could come from different resources (data bases, descriptive files, multimedia, etc.). No all visualization techniques are applicable to all kinds of data sets derived by different numerical techniques. By the other hand we have the big amount of devices that the computer equipment uses to display information. This devices ranges from big video walls and immersion systems to mobile devices with a limited amount of resources. An important problem that this entails is how information, been an abstract element ,could be represented in a suitable form in every device that we have available, taking its characteristics into account. In this work, a dissertation of the problems and implications of adaptability of information, a revision of the kinds of data, output displays and techniques for data representation is made, in order to have a base to propose solutions to this problem.
