1. A computer-implemented method comprising:

  • receiving a set of constraints for selecting objects representative of time dependent events;

    requesting, from each of a plurality of software objects, each software object maintaining a distinct set of time dependent event objects representing a distinct type of time dependent event, a set of time dependent event objects meeting said set of constraints;

    merging each said set of time dependent event objects into an ordered list based on an ordering criterion; and

    providing said ordered list to a software module for displaying a visual representation of the time dependent event objects of said ordered list in a graphical user interface.
