Abstract
Embodiments of the invention include a method of implementing a touch screen optimized pivot table. The method includes providing a view of a hierarchal table on a touch screen. The hierarchal table includes hierarchal levels and each of hierarchal levels includes corresponding data. The method further includes mapping each of the hierarchal levels to each of a corresponding region on the touch screen. Each region's view displays the corresponding data for the mapped hierarchal level. The method further includes displaying on the touch screen the corresponding data for each of the hierarchal levels in each of the mapped regions, receiving at the touch screen input to manipulate at least one of the regions on the touch screen, and in response to the received input, causing each subordinate region to the at least one manipulated region to update the corresponding data displayed in each of the subordinate regions.
