1. A method, comprising:
- accessing values of a first data type selected by a user from a plurality of data types, wherein the values of the first data type are measured during each of a plurality of time periods identified by a user input, and wherein the values of the first data type do not comprise time values;
determining a non-chronological order for the plurality of time periods based on the values of the first data type;
displaying a first selectable region for each of the plurality of time periods, wherein the first selectable regions are arranged according to the non-chronological order; and
in response to a user selection of one of the first selectable regions, displaying at least a value of a second data type of the plurality of data types, wherein the value of the second data type is measured during the time period of the selected one of the first selectable regions, and wherein the displaying of at least the value of the second data type is performed by a processor of a machine.

Abstract
In an embodiment, a method of providing an arranged display of data associated with a set of time periods is presented. In this method, values of a first data type are accessed, the values being observed during each of multiple time periods. An order for the time periods is determined based on the values of the first data type. A selectable region for each of the time periods is displayed, the regions being arranged according to the order. In response to a user selection of one of the selectable regions, a value of a second data type is displayed, the value of the second data type being observed during the time period of the selected one of the selectable regions.

16. A system comprising:
-
a user interface; data storage; and at least one processor configured to; access values of a first data type selected by a user from a plurality of data types, wherein the values of the first data type are measured during each of a plurality of time periods identified by a user input, and wherein the values of the first data type do not comprise time values; determine a non-chronological order of the plurality of time periods based on the values of the first data type; display via the user interface a first selectable region for each of a plurality of time periods, wherein the first selectable regions are arranged according to the non-chronological order; receive from a user via the user interface a selection of one of the first selectable regions; and in response to receiving the selection, display via the user interface at least a value of a second data type of the plurality of data types, wherein the value of the second data type is measured during the time period of the selected one of the first selectable regions. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19)
