Systems and methods that facilitate process monitoring, navigation, and parameter-based magnification
First Claim
1. A user interface that facilitates process monitoring comprising:
- one or more bands distributed across a display screen, the one or more bands comprising data corresponding to one or more processes;
at least one context magnification control that exposes a contextualized view of at least a portion of the one or more bands, whereby the contextualized view is based in part on one or more selected parameters; and
one or more navigation components that control navigation and visualization of the one or more bands to facilitate viewing the one or more processes in real-time or near real-time.

Abstract
The subject invention relates to a system and/or methodology that facilitate navigation and monitoring of one or more processes. Within each process, one or more activities or events can be monitored. In particular, navigation through a process can be improved by employing a parameter-based magnification tool. The invention provides for a magnification component that can navigate through aggregations of activities as they relate to one or more processes according to a parameter or metric unit. As a result, a user can view a business process or scheme, for instance, from multiple perspectives at the same time or individually to observe its state or status, trends or patterns, locate problems areas, inefficiencies, or efficiencies within the process, and/or optimize the process or a sub-part thereof.

17. A user interface that facilitates process monitoring comprising:
-
one or more bands distributed across a display screen, the one or more bands comprising data corresponding to one or more processes;
a modification component that suggests at least one change to optimize at least one process; and
a simulation component that incorporates the at least one change in the process and simulates operation of the process to facilitate determining how the at least one change impacts the process. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21)

22. A user interface that facilitates process monitoring comprising:
-
one or more bands distributed across a display screen, the one or more bands comprising data corresponding to one or more processes;
a simulation component that incorporates at least one modification into at least one process and simulates real-time operation of the process to facilitate determining how the at least one modification impacts the process; and
