Abstract

A software visualization tool consistent with the present invention integrates OLAP functionality with focus+context based techniques for navigation through and inspection of large multidimensional datasets. Focus+context based navigation techniques are used to increase the clarity and information content provided to the user. The visualization tool supports a number of operations of the data set, including: select-slice, aggregation, promote/demote, repeat-variables, and sort.
