Apparatus and method for acquiring, managing, sharing, monitoring, analyzing and publishing web-based time series data

摘要

A computer-implemented method of providing time series data includes maintaining by a web server user account data for each of a plurality of user accounts. Each account is associated with a user. The method includes, for each user having a user account, serving by the web server a set of web pages configured to support uploading of time series data to the web server, including updates of such data from time to time; storing by the web server the uploaded time series data; and serving by the web server a set of web pages configured to present such data to such user. Related methods include a method for web-publishing the data, and loading the data into applications running locally. There is also provided a digital storage medium encoded with instructions that when loaded into a computer establish processes that implement any of these methods.
