A functional approach to an information display system that enables a fast and easy understanding of the status of a complex process. The display screen is organized by process goals. Each process goal is then tied to a number of process objectives which directly relate individually to the goals. The objectives are in turn tied to the process functions which must be substantially maintained in order to achieve the respective objectives. A display of control functions related to each process function is mapped onto the regional displays. The individual display elements use a combination of coded background color, border color and other indicia of information, e.g., mimics, meters, etc. to present a significant amount of information about the status of the process and its components in a manner that is readily absorbed and easily understood.
