Individual skill
vis-related-work
Use when positioning an IEEE VIS submission against the visualization literature across TVCG, the six VIS areas, EuroVis/CGF, PacificVis, and adjacent HCI/graphics venues, writing delta-first contrast rather than a citation catalog, keeping self-citations double-blind when opted in, and handling concurrent, preprint, and prior-version overlap for a TVCG journal article.

# VIS Related Work
Use this to audit novelty and positioning. IEEE VIS reviewers are close to the visualization
literature and expect to see where your paper sits relative to the nearest prior work — stated as a
**delta**, not a list. Because VIS full papers are **TVCG articles**, the novelty bar is a journal
bar. Reopen the current call for dual-submission, anonymity, and prior-publication rules before
advising authors.
## Positioning checks
- **Separate the visualization novelty from the engineering.** What is new: a visual encoding, an
interaction technique, a system integrating known parts in a newly effective way, an empirical
finding about perception or use, or a model/methodology?
- **Cover the visualization lanes.** VIS reviewers expect TVCG/VIS prior work in your area, the
