Abstract

Techniques to display and analyze reliability data about a large population of objects are disclosed. In some embodiments, reliability data is arranged in an array, comprising a plurality of linear arrays each of which includes reliability data for a corresponding reporting period. The reliability data includes for each of a plurality of subpopulations a corresponding reliability metric for that subpopulation with respect to the reporting period. A statistics-based conditional formatting is applied to at least a subset of cells comprising the array. The statistics-based conditional formatting may be applied by invoking a function or other automated method to apply a first cell formatting to a first set of cells having a first degree of statistical significance relative to a reference population of cells and a second cell formatting to a second set of cells having a second degree of statistical significance relative to the reference population.
