Abstract
An icon display apparatus reduces data to icons and displays those icons. The data corresponds to items classified into a plurality of groups and to apparatus for processing the data. A storage stores the data; a graphic generator produces a graphic data for visualizing those data as icons each representing an object in a multi-dimensional space; and a display displays those icons arranged in respective groups corresponding to attributes of data in the multi-dimensional space.
