Abstract
Systems and methodologies are provided for data visualization, retrieval and management of a logically ordered list by a selective multi level expansion of pivot point data. Such pivot points can represent hierarchy expansion designators to a subsequent level, which can include user created groups/clusters of data. The present invention facilitates data management by advantageously combining; the logical order of data with relevance criteria that can indicate importance of the data to a user. The logical order of the data can be a user friendly order that is easily recognizable and independent of the relevance criteria.
