Abstract: A system (and corresponding methodology) by which a user can interact directly with visual data is provided. The system employs associations and relationships between visual data objects to automatically update objects based upon a change in other objects. The innovation also provides specialized controls (e.g., dashboard tools/controls) that facilitate manipulation of visual data. As there can be numerous manners in which a user can interact with visualization data, the innovation enables a specialized set of controls to be identified and provided to a user thereby reducing overwhelming effects of a large number of controls.

Abstract: A system facilitates dynamic data visualizations. The system includes an analysis component that periodically processes one or more incoming data streams to determine a visualization form from a plurality of visualization forms. A visualization component dynamically generates the visualization form based in part on the processing of the incoming data streams.

Abstract: A visualization input system is provided. The system includes a visualization component that receives input gestures from a user (or users) and translates the gestures into one or more data manipulation commands. A distribution component receives the data manipulation commands and propagates data modifications across one or more databases in view of the commands. This includes a rights component that enables the data modifications to be implemented across the one or more databases.

Abstract: A visualization system is provided. The system includes a visualization component that displays at least two dimensions of data in at least a two dimensional view of the data. A selection component indicates at least one other dimension of data and a projection component expands the two dimensional view of the data with at least one other dimensional view of the data.

Abstract: An adaptive visualization system is provided. The system includes a processing component that receives visualization configurations to determine a suitable visualization for a user. A visualization component automatically adapts a visualization output based in part on the visualization configurations. The visualization configurations can include user context inputs, user profile inputs, device characteristic inputs, or background data inputs, for example.

Abstract: A graphical user interface system is provided. The system includes a graphical component to enable sketching of a diagram and a logical component to associate one or more data sources with the diagram. A visualization component adjusts the diagram in accordance with the one or more data sources.
