	abstract = {Database searches are usually performed with querylanguages and form fill in templates, with results displayed in
tabular lists. However, excitement is building around
dynamic queries sliders and other graphical selectors for
query specification, with results displayed by information
visualization techniques. These filtering techniques have
proven to be effective for many tasks in which visual
presentations enable discovery of relationships, clusters,
outliers, gaps, and other patterns. Scaling visual presentations
from millions to billions of records will require collaborative
research efforts in information visualization and database
management to enable rapid aggregation, meaningful
coordinated windows, and effective summary graphics. This
paper describes current and proposed solutions (atomic,
aggregated, and density plots) that facilitate sense-making for
interactive visual exploration of billion record data sets.
