Monitoring and analysis of data in cyberspace

A method, comprising:

• obtaining information indicative of a plurality of different parameters collectively representing a plurality of different kinds of information, which different parameters have absolute values representing at least a plurality of different measurement units;
• displaying information about values of said parameters on a common graph such that only parameters which differ from a specified nominal range are displayed in a prominent way, and parameters which are within said nominal range are displayed in a non prominent way;
• and
• allowing selection of parameters, which are displayed in said prominent way, and changing said parameters to be changed to being displayed in said non-prominent way.

A method, comprising:

• monitoring a plurality of items of information from a plurality of information sources, each item of information being represented by a parameter and having a value in a specified form, at least one of said specified forms being different than another of said specified forms, so that at least a plurality of said items have different units which are un correlated to one another;
• establishing, for each of said plurality of items, a nominal range of values within which said parameter is still maintained as within a normal value;
• displaying a location, with only a nominal indication of the parameter value, for each of said parameter values that are within said nominal range;
• and
• displaying an indication of a percentage by which the parameter value exceeds said nominal range and approaches an alarm value for each parameter that exceeds said nominal range.

A method, comprising:

• obtaining information indicative of a plurality of different parameters including at least a first parameter defining a first kind of information having a first unit of measure, and a second parameter defining a second kind of information having a second unit of measure, where said first unit of measure is unrelated to said second unit;
• defining a display including said plurality of different parameters which displays each of said plurality of different parameters;
• defining a nominal range for each of said plurality of different parameters;
• and
• displaying parameters which are within said nominal range to have a nominal value on said display such that each parameter within said nominal range has the same nominal value, and displaying parameters which are outside said nominal range with a value related to an amount by which said parameter is outside said nominal range.

A method, comprising:

• obtaining information indicative of a plurality of different parameters, including at least a plurality of different kinds of information, and a plurality of different units for said different kinds of information;
• monitoring a rate of change of at least a plurality of said parameters;
• monitoring an absolute value of said at least a plurality of said parameters;
• providing a display with each of said plurality of different parameters based on said monitoring, said display showing only parameters whose absolute value exceeds a first threshold or whose rate of change value exceeds a second threshold.

A method, comprising:

• obtaining information indicative of a plurality of different parameters, including at least a plurality of different kinds of information, each different kind of information capable of having a different unit of measure;
• defining a range of nominal absolute values for each of said plurality of parameters;
• defining a limit alarm related to rate of change for at least a plurality of said parameters;
• and
• displaying information indicative of both a) whether said parameter exceeds said range of nominal absolute values and b) whether said each parameter exceeds said limit alarm, on a single indication for said parameter.

A method, comprising:

• obtaining information indicative of a plurality of parameters of information, at least some of which use different units of measure then others of said parameters;
• displaying said information in a first form which is independent of said units of measure, said first form displaying information on values which differ from their nominal value without displaying the absolute values of said parameters;
• and
• allowing selection of any of said items of information to obtain information on their absolute values of said parameters.

A method, comprising:

• obtaining information indicative of a plurality of different parameters, including at least a plurality of different kinds of information, each different kind of information capable of having a different unit;
• defining a range of nominal values for each of said plurality of parameters and defining an alarm value for each of said plurality of parameters;
• displaying a common alarm grid, which is common for each of said plurality of different parameters in said plurality of different units;
• and
• displaying information indicative of whether said parameter exceeds said range of nominal absolute values and a relationship of said each parameter on a single indication for said parameter.
