TL;DR
DateLens is a novel calendar interface for PDAs that supports users in performing planning and analysis tasks by using a fisheye representation of dates coupled with compact overviews, user control over the visible time period, and integrated search.
Abstract
DateLens is a novel calendar interface for PDAs. It supports users in performing planning and analysis tasks by using a fisheye representation of dates coupled with compact overviews, user control over the visible time period, and integrated search. This enables users to see overviews and to easily navigate the calendar structure, and to discover patterns and outliers.

A focus+context technique based on hyperbolic geometry for visualizing large hierarchies
892 Citations1995John Lamping, Ramana Rao +1 more
The essence of this scheme is to lay out the hierarchy in a uniform way on a hyperbolic plane an d map this plane onto a circular display region that supports a smooth blending between focus and context, as well as continuous redirection of the focus.
The table lens
668 Citations1994Ramana Rao, Stuart K. Card
The Table Lens fuses symbolic and graphical representations into a single coherent view that can be fluidly adjusted by the user and enables an extremely rich and natural style of direct manipulation exploratory data analysis.
Graphical fisheye views of graphs
471 Citations1992Manojit Sarkar, Marc H. Brown
This paper describes a system for viewing and browsing planar graphs using a software analog of a fisheye lens and describes a more general transformation that allows hierarchical, structured information about the graph to modify the views.

232 Citations1982Robert Spence, Mark Apperley
A new display technique which overcomes the classical “windowing” problem, and the use of natural dialogues utilizing simple actions such as pointing, gesturing, touching and spoken commands makes the scheme well suited to the professional person, who is most likely unwilling to learn complex command languages.
Fisheye menus
