Figure 118. Data Explorer architecture #!EF #!N #!EC The Data Explorer 
User Interface and Data Explorer Executive are the two programs you 
use when you create and execute visual programs. Underlying the Data 
Explorer Executive is a collection of modules, which in turn use 
the Data Explorer data model to manipulate all of the objects 
in a program (data sets, isosurfaces, images, etc.). The Data Explorer 
architecture is described in more detail in  #!Love,dxall180 h Overview  #!EL  in IBM Visualization
