Abstract

Large and complex data sets can be difficult to view on devices with small screens, such as on smartphones, or in small windows on devices with large screens. The presently disclosed systems, methods and apparatus can determine characteristics associated with a display used to display a requested resource. Based on these determined characteristics, the systems and methods can determine whether the requested resource should be reformatted to fit the display. The requested resource can be reformatted to allow a user to consume complex data on a small display easily and effectively. In some embodiments, this can be done by ensuring that the current data context, previously provided by row/column headers, are always in view in a compact format.
