Abstract
A method and apparatus are generally disclosed for presenting predictively and graphically administering a networked system in a time dimension. According to one aspect of the present application, a method is disclosed for presenting a projected status of at least one network system component. The method comprises identifying a present reference time and defining a status time associated with at least one network system component. The status time is future time relative to the reference time. The method also comprises identifying the network system component for presentation. The method further comprises determining a projected status associated with the network system component as of the status time. A representation of the projected status of the network system component is output for presentation. The outputting of the representation includes displaying a three-dimensional depiction of the network system component.
