Abstract: Scorecard data is received, processed, and visualizations provided by a performance metric application. Real time collaboration between users is facilitated through context based selections from the visualizations through one or more communication applications. Performance metric application may be embedded in the communication application or vice versa through local implementation or in a service based architecture.

Abstract: A user interface is programmed to create a scorecard. The interface includes a scorecard module including a column area and a row area, and a key performance indicator area including a plurality of key performance indicators. A key performance indicator from the key performance indicator area can be dragged and dropped onto one of the column area and the row area to add indicia associated with the key performance indicator to the scorecard.

Abstract: Performance metric scores are computed and aggregated by determining status bands based on boundary definitions and relative position of an input value within the status bands. A behavior of the score within a score threshold in response to a behavior of the input is defined based on a status indication scheme. Users may be enabled to define or adjust computation parameters graphically. Once individual scores are computed, aggregation for different levels may be performed based on a hierarchy of the metrics and rules of aggregation.

Abstract: Scorecard associated content is provided to limited user interfaces of desktop visualization applications on a user's computing device (e.g. a mobile computing device, an ultra-mobile computing device, a personal digital assistant, an in-car computing system, and a tablet computing device) for delivery of personalized and scalable metrics. Users are enabled to set up personalized metric views based on predefined or user-defined desktop visualization applications employing indicators, partial report views, audio, video, and the like. Data delivery attributes from local or remote data sources can be set for deployment of the desktop visualization applications in a service based architecture. Computing device visualization applications may also be used to activate local or remote applications for various scorecard operations.

Abstract: Untethered interaction with a performance metric application in a service-based architecture is provided enabling users to have access to an enterprise library of summarized metrics and metric views in wireless environments. Metric data, aggregations, and analyses are provided to local application(s) for rendering personalized and scalable views. Through caching and synchronization, offline operations are enabled. Permission levels, user profiles, and multi-tiered security measures ensure protection of confidentiality and integrity of performance metric data.

Abstract: Users are enabled to utilize data from performance metrics to drive the behavior of geometric shapes to visualize business performance and create new composite objects that show magnitude, patterns of structured and unstructured data, interrelationships, causalities, and dependencies. Presentations are then rendered in a performance metric application or in another application through an embeddable user interface using the geometric shapes and composite objects. Automatic update of presented information in response to changes in the underlying data is enabled through the use of composite objects.
