This situation results in a set of multiple
patterns for different purposes: Web environments, social
networks, etc. Our approach is a first step to build patterns for
data-analysis systems. This paper identifies a set of design
guidelines useful for the specification of interfaces in the area
of data-analysis systems. In next steps of our investigation, we
are planning to define new RIA patterns through the study of
these design guidelines during the software development
process with several developers.
