Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention include a method for visualizing data corresponding to a sporting event, comprising: receiving data corresponding to a sporting event, wherein the data comprises at least time one or more specified times during the sporting event, a magnitude associated with each of the one or more specified times, and a team associated with the magnitude; mapping a total time period captured in the data to polar coordinates, where a beginning of play in the sporting event is zero degrees and an end of play in the sporting event is 360 degrees, the polar coordinates displayed in a radial time series; mapping a maximum of the magnitude to a maximum outward extent; mapping each magnitude at the one or more specified times onto the radial time series at a corresponding degree; distinguishing the magnitude by the team corresponding to the magnitude; and displaying the radial time series.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for generating a composed control. The method comprises selecting one or more functional modules, coupling the one or more selected functional modules to a core control, and generating scripted code that, when executed, implements the functionality of the core control and selected functional modules.
