Bostock, Ogievetsky and Heer: D3 data-driven documents

What changed

Bound data directly to native document elements and applied dynamic transforms in D3.

Scientific scope

The record is the exact three-author 2011 IEEE paper and the system evaluated there. It does not absorb predecessor toolkits, every later D3 release, downstream visualization work or all web standards on which D3 depends.
