Abstract

A method, system, and computer program product for human-machine interface devices. Embodiments commence upon receiving a set of dimensions then generating a first interactive user interface comprising a series of concentric rings corresponding to the set of dimensions. The concentric rings comprise a series of wedges representing dimension values. A second interactive user interface is displayed, wherein the second interactive user interface comprises at least some of the set of dimensions, and wherein a user interaction upon the first interactive user interface causes a change in the second interactive user interface. Embodiments can include a selector to select a wedge and/or a slice, and the second interactive user interface can be presented as a table. User interaction upon the second interactive user interface is reflected simultaneously on the first user interface and user interaction upon the first user interface is reflected simultaneously on the table.

Claims

1. A method comprising:

using a computing system having at least one processor to perform at least some steps of a process, the process comprising;

receiving a set of dimensions, at least some of the dimensions having a plurality of dimension values;

generating for display, a first interactive user interface comprising a series of concentric rings corresponding to the set of dimensions, wherein each ring comprises a series of wedges; and

generating for display, a second interactive user interface, comprising at least some of the set of dimensions, and wherein a user interaction upon the first interactive user interface causes a change in the second interactive user interface.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the first interactive user interface comprises a selector, and the second interactive user interface comprises a table.

3. The method of claim 2, further comprising:

receiving a user interaction upon the table; and

reflecting the user interaction upon the table on the first user interface.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein at least some of the set of dimensions are derived from enterprise data.

5. The method of claim 4, wherein at least some of the series of concentric rings correspond to respective ones of the dimensions derived from enterprise data.

6. The method of claim 1, further comprising generating an updated first interactive user interface wherein the updated first interactive user interface is updated in response to a user interaction upon the second interactive user interface.

7. The method of claim 1, wherein the user interaction upon the first interactive user interface comprises a spin of a first one of the series of concentric rings.

8. The method of claim 1, wherein the user interaction upon the first interactive user interface comprises a spin of a second one of the series of concentric rings.

9. The method of claim 1, wherein the user interaction upon the first interactive user interface comprises a scroll of a portion of the second interactive user interface.

10. The method of claim 9, wherein the portion of the second interactive user interface is a tabular interface element.

11. A computer program product embodied in a non-transitory computer readable medium, the computer readable medium having stored thereon a sequence of instructions which, when executed by a processor causes the processor to execute a process, the process comprising:

receiving a set of dimensions, at least some of the dimensions having a plurality of dimension values;

generating for display, a first interactive user interface comprising a series of concentric rings corresponding to the set of dimensions, wherein each ring comprises a series of wedges; and

generating for display, a second interactive user interface, comprising at least some of the set of dimensions, and wherein a user interaction upon the first interactive user interface causes a change in the second interactive user interface.

12. The computer program product of claim 11, wherein the first interactive user interface comprises a selector, and the second interactive user interface comprises a table.

13. The computer program product of claim 12, further comprising:

program instructions for receiving a user interaction upon the table; and

program instructions for reflecting the user interaction upon the table on the first user interface.

14. The computer program product of claim 11, wherein at least some of the set of dimensions are derived from enterprise data.

15. The computer program product of claim 11, further comprising program instructions for generating an updated first interactive user interface wherein the updated first interactive user interface is updated in response to a user interaction upon the second interactive user interface.

16. The computer program product of claim 11, wherein the user interaction upon the first interactive user interface comprises a spin of a first one of the series of concentric rings.

17. The computer program product of claim 11, wherein the user interaction upon the first interactive user interface comprises a spin of a second one of the series of concentric rings.

18. The computer program product of claim 11, wherein the user interaction upon the first interactive user interface comprises a scroll of a portion of the second interactive user interface.

19. A system comprising:

a data interface to receive a set of dimensions, at least some of the dimensions having a plurality of dimension values;

a first user interface builder module to generate for display, a first interactive user interface comprising a series of concentric rings corresponding to the set of dimensions, wherein each ring comprises a series of wedges; and

a second user interface builder module to generate for display, a second interactive user interface, comprising at least some of the set of dimensions, and wherein a user interaction upon the first interactive user interface causes a change in the second interactive user interface.

20. The system of claim 19, wherein the first interactive user interface comprises a selector, and the second interactive user interface comprises a table.
