Abstract: A method comprises receiving data points from a spreadsheet, mapping the data points to a reference space, generating a cover of the reference space, clustering the data points mapped to the reference space to determine each node of a graph, each node including at least one data point, generating a visualization depicting the nodes, the visualization including an edge between every two nodes that share at least one data point, generating a translation data structure indicating location of the data points in the spreadsheet as well as membership of each node, detecting a selection of at least one node, determining the location of data points in the spreadsheet corresponding to data points that are members of the selected node(s) using the translation data structure, and providing a first command to a spreadsheet application to provide a first visual identification of the first set of data points in the spreadsheet.

Abstract: Various embodiments provide an ability to automatically boot a computing device with an operating system stored on a portable storage device when the portable storage device is detected to be present. The computing device can be configured to dynamically boot from the portable storage device when the portable storage device is detected, and revert to a programmed boot order in its associated boot module when the portable storage device is not detected. In some embodiments, the operating system is fully encapsulated on the portable storage device, such as the operating system being completely separate from an operating system initially booting the computing device.
