Abstract

Embodiments described herein disclose systems and methods for presenting information to a user, wherein the user may view and interact with the information. Embodiments may be configured to present the information in a multilayer pie chart, sunburst, etc., wherein different layers of the chart represent different metadata corresponding to different tasks.

Claims

1. A system for organizing and presenting metadata, the system comprising:

a first level hardware device configured to receive first level data, the first level data defining high level categories of related groups;

a second level hardware device configured to receive second level data indicating tasks associated with the first level data, wherein each of the groups have different tasks, and each task has a unique identifier, wherein each unique identifier having metadata with different numbers of unique values; and

a display configured to present a first layer represented as an internal circumference of a chart, and a second layer being positioned adjacent to the first layer, the first layer being associated with the first level data, and the second layer being associated with the second level data.

2. The system of claim 1, wherein partitions associated with each of the groups in the first layer is based on a number of tasks associated with each of the groups.

3. The system of claim 2, wherein a first size of a first partition within the first layer represents a percentage of a first number of tasks associated with a first group and a total number of tasks associated with each of the groups.

4. The system of claim 1, wherein a number of partitions within the second layer is based on a number of the unique values of metadata associated with the task.

5. The system of claim 4, wherein the second layer for each group is selected based on the metadata having the fewest number of unique values.

6. The system of claim 5, wherein partitions associated with the tasks in the second layer align with a corresponding group.

7. The system of claim 6, wherein a size of the partitions within the second layer is based on a size of a partition of the corresponding group in the first layer, the number of unique values of metadata associated with the task, and a total number of tasks associated with the corresponding group.

8. The system of claim 7, wherein each of the partitions in the second layer associated with the corresponding group is associated with a different unique identifier.

9. The system of claim 7, wherein a first group has a first set of partitions associated with a first set of tasks, and a second group has a second set of partitions associated with a second set of tasks.

10. The system of claim 1, further comprising:

a third level hardware device configured to receive third level data, the third level data being the metadata associated with the unique values associated with the tasks, wherein different metadata have different number of unique values, wherein the display is configured to present a third layer, the third layer being positioned adjacent to the second layer, and the third level representing the third level data.

11. A method for organizing and presenting metadata, the system comprising:

receiving first level data defining high level categories of related groups;

receiving second level data indicating tasks associated with the first level data, wherein each of the groups have different tasks, and each task has a unique identifier, wherein each unique identifier having metadata with different number of unique values; and

presenting a first layer represented as an internal circumference of a chart, and a second layer being positioned adjacent to the first layer, the first layer being associated with the first level data, and the second layer being associated with the second level data.

12. The method of claim 11, further comprising:

generating partitions associated with each of the groups in the first layer based on a number of tasks associated with each of the groups.

13. The method of claim 12, wherein a first size of a first partition within the first layer represents a percentage of a first number of tasks associated with a first group and a total number of tasks associated with each of the groups.

14. The method of claim 11, further comprising:

generating a number of partitions within the second layer based on a number of the unique values of metadata associated with the task.

15. The method of claim 14, further comprising:

selecting the metadata representing in the second layer for each group based on the metadata having the fewest number of unique values.

16. The method of claim 15, further comprising:

aligning partitions associated with the tasks in the second layer a corresponding group.

17. The method of claim 16, wherein a size of the partitions within the second layer is based on a size of a partition of the corresponding group in the first layer, the number of unique values of metadata associated with the task, and a total number of tasks associated with the corresponding group.

18. The method of claim 17, wherein each of the partitions in the second layer associated with the corresponding group is associated with a different unique identifier.

19. The method of claim 18, wherein a first group has a first set of partitions associated with a first set of tasks, and a second group has a second set of partitions associated with a second set of tasks.

20. A method for organizing and presenting metadata, the system comprising:

receiving first level data defining high level categories of related groups;

receiving second level data indicating tasks associated with the first level data, wherein each of the groups have different tasks, and each task has a unique identifier, wherein each unique identifier having metadata with different number of unique values; and

receiving third level data being the metadata associated with the unique values associated with the tasks, wherein the display is configured to present a third layer, the third layer being positioned adjacent to the second layer, and the third level representing the third level data.

presenting a first layer represented as an internal circumference of a chart, the first layer being associated with the first level data, wherein a first group within the first layer has a first set of partitions associated with a first set of tasks, and a second group within the first layer has a second set of partitions associated with a second set of tasks;

generating partitions associated with each of the groups in the first layer based on a number of tasks associated with each of the groups, wherein a first size of a first partition within the first layer represents a percentage of a first number of tasks associated with a first group and a total number of tasks associated with each of the groups;

presenting a second layer being positioned adjacent to the first layer, the second layer being associated with the second level data;

selecting the metadata representing in the second layer for each group based on the metadata having the fewest number of unique values;

generating a number of partitions within the second layer based on a number of the unique values of metadata associated with the task, wherein each of the partitions associated with the tasks in the second layer is aligned with a corresponding group, wherein a size of the partitions within the second layer is based on a size of a partition of the corresponding group in the first layer, the number of unique values of metadata associated with the task, and a total number of tasks associated with the corresponding group;

presenting a third layer being positioned adjacent to the second layer, the third layer being associated with the third level data.
