System and method for processing and/or analyzing olap based data according to one or more parameters

A computer-implemented method for analyzing a base vector comprising data from an OLAP database, said method comprising the steps of:

• configuring the base vector wherein the base vector comprises a time dimension and one or more other dimensions;
• configuring a comparison vector and selecting one or more dimensions for said comparison vector wherein said selected one or more dimensions correspond to one or more dimensions of the base vector;
• applying one or more analysis operations to said comparison vector and modifying the base vector according to said one or more analysis operations;
• and
• rendering the resulting base vector.

A computer program product for processing a base vector comprising data from an OLAP database, said computer program product comprising:

• a storage medium configured to store computer readable instructions;
• said computer readable instructions including instructions for,
• defining the base vector wherein the base vector comprises a time dimension and one or more other dimensions;
• defining a comparison vector and selecting one or more dimensions for said comparison vector wherein said selected one or more dimensions correspond to one or more dimensions of the base vector;
• applying one or more analysis operations to said comparison vector and modifying said base vector according to said one or more analysis operations;
• and
• rendering the resulting base vector.
