This paper deals with representation of scientific references’ data and visual analysis of this data using web based scientific reference management software. The Reference application, is a web based reference management software, that enables easy administration and management of authors and scientific references. Similar web based reference management systems additionally support advanced tools for data visualization and exploration but the downside of this solutions is that they require installation of additional plugins due to the fact that visualization within the web browsers requires advanced graphics capabilities thus limiting the usability of these applications. The Reference application on the other hand introduces a solution for data visualization and exploration that relies on extensive usage of the latest HTML5 web standard featuring support for rich graphic intensive web applications hence forcing maximum usability and compatibility with the modern web browsers. This paper describes the visualization tool within Reference application, its implementation and functionalities.
