petitive, linear-mixed system, and hyperbolic-mixed system mechanisms quickly leads to the selection of the hyperbolic-mixed system as the most likely mechanism of the five consid­ered (Figure 12b). The residual sur­face deviations for the latter are equally distributed above and below the plane. A relative novice could in­terpret the data. Unlike the more tra­ditional techniques, all data were used in obtaining each set of parameter es­timates. To analyze the same data set by the traditional technique would have required the development and examination of hundreds of linear plots by a skilled kineticist.

Often it is desirable to obtain visual representations of the effects of four variables. This can be accomplished on a color terminal using transparen­cies. On a monochromic terminal one variable, e.g., the dependent variable, can be placed on the time axis, with the result that one sees a dynamic dis­play where each frame shows the rela­tionship of three independent vari­ables at a fixed level of the dependent variable. For the kinetics research de­scribed above, such a four-dimension­al representation was developed with a dynamic display of a reaction-rate surface as a function of three indepen­dent variables. Figure 13 shows three sequential frames from such a presen­tation, interactively displayed to the user in real time.
