Abstract: A user provides input to a graphical user interface to transform a chart that is linked to other charts presented to the user through the interface. In response to this input, the chart is transformed and updated. This transformation may cause the chart to make available a transformation event to a queue, which may cause other linked charts to obtain the transformation event and determine what transformations need to be performed within these other linked charts. Based at least in part on this transformation event, the other linked charts may obtain any necessary data and may perform the necessary transformations mirror the transformations performed for the original chart.

Abstract: A system for traversing between nodes within a user interface receives a directional command from a user. The directional command is a command to move a focus away from a current node. The system also determines a next node to move the focus onto. The determining the next node is based on the relative positioning between the current node and the other nodes. The determining the next node is based on previous movements of the focus that were performed prior to moving the focus onto the current node. The system also performs movement of the focus from the current node onto the next node.

Abstract: In the proposed approach cluster elements (bins) are made available as a keypad in the form of a cluster map. The user directly selects the cluster element (bin) with a mouse, touch or actual keypad. For each of the associated attributes, a cluster map is available that orders the attributes from high-to-low by color or shade intensity. When a cluster element is selected in one cluster map, that same cluster element is also highlighted in other cluster maps. For each of the cluster maps, a value axis is available which shows the value of the parameter for the selected cluster element. In the case of numerical values, the high/low attribute pattern across the cluster maps is easily visible. The selected data objects in the cluster map are displayed in a separate widget.
