SCALABILITY OF JAVASCRIPTLIBRARIES FOR DATAVISUALIZATION

Visualization is an important tool for making data understandable. Visualization can be used for many different purposes, such as charts on the web used to visualize a dataset. Render time is important for websites since slow response times can cause users to leave the site. When creating a website with fast render times in mind, the selection of JavaScript library may be crucial. This work aims to determine if dataset size and/or chart type affects the render time of charts created by different JavaScript libraries. The comparison is done by a literature search to identify suitable libraries, followed by an experiment in which 40 websites are created to compare the performance of selected JavaScript libraries for rendering selected chart types. The results show that while both dataset size and chart type affect the render time in most cases, the libraries scale differently depending on the dataset size.
