Abstract

A method for displaying a time-series data set. The method may include determining a number of data intervals for the data set, determining a data resolution for each data interval, partitioning a display space into a number of substantially equally sized partitions equal to the number of data intervals, partitioning the dataset into a number of time-relevance-based subsets equal to the number of partitions based on the currentness of the data and the desired data resolution for each partition, determining a data layout for each partition, and associating the data values for each subset with the corresponding layout. Furthermore, the first subset may consist of more current data at a first resolution and the second subset may consist of data that is less current than the first subset at a lower resolution than the first resolution.
