Abstract: A data visualization system is disclosed that includes a data value memory, a display, and contour generator. The data value memory maintains a finite set of data values. The display is arranged to display a representation of each data value centered on respective data points. The contour generator is arranged to generate and display a representation having a cross-sectional shape of a bell-shaped curve in which each data point is displayed as an apex of the bell-shaped curve. Also disclosed is a method of data visualization and a data visualization computer program.

Abstract: A method of creating a graphical representation of a plurality of components that are grouped in a plurality of component groups, wherein the component groups are formed based on two or more different group types, and values of one or more selectable metrics are associated with the components, the method including the steps of: detecting a selection of the one or more metrics; retrieving metric values for the selected metric associated with components belonging to component groups of a first group type; determining the relative proportion of the retrieved metric values across components that are members of a second type component group; and graphically representing the first type component group using one or more first icons that are graphically represented based on the retrieved metric values, and positioned within a section of the graphical representation based on the determined relative proportion.

Abstract: The invention provides a data visualization system comprising a data value memory in which is maintained a finite set of data values and display means arranged to display a contoured representation. One or more of the data values are displayed as contours around one or more data points and each data value is centered on a data point. The invention also provides a method of data visualization and a data visualization computer program.
