COMPUTER SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AUTOMATICALLY VIEWING MULTIDIMENSIONAL DATABASES
First Claim
1. A method for displaying graphical representations of datasets, comprising:
- at a computer having one or more processors and memory storing programs for execution by the one or more processors;
receiving a request from a user to display a graphical representation of a dataset;
in response to the request;
identifying a plurality of alternative graphical representations of the dataset, wherein each alternative graphical representation has a respective associated view type;
ranking the plurality of alternative graphical representations in accordance with a rating system, wherein the rating system is based on a set of criteria, and wherein the set of criteria includes at least one user-specific criterion;
selecting for display a resulting graphical representation from among the plurality of alternative graphical representations based the ranking.

Abstract
The implementations described herein include methods and systems for displaying graphical representations of datasets. A method is performed at a computer having one or more processors and memory storing programs for execution by the processors. The method receives a request from a user to display a graphical representation of a dataset. In response to the request, the method identifies a plurality of alternative graphical representations of the dataset. Each alternative graphical representation has a respective associated view type. The method ranks the plurality of alternative graphical representations in accordance with a rating system. The rating system is based on a set of criteria, which includes at least one user-specific criterion. The method selects for display a resulting graphical representation from among the plurality of alternative graphical representations based on the ranking.
