摘要

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for the visualization of calendar search results. A calendar search results visualization method can include obtaining search results for a search against a data store of calendar events, selecting a sorting attribute for the search results such as a user attribute or event type attribute, counting how often the sorting attribute can be found in an event among the search results, and sorting the search results according to the count. The method also can include rendering the sorted search results in a visualization user interface organized in tabular format of events by date, in which each event is represented in the visualization user interface by an iconic representation that can vary in size according to a number of participants to a corresponding event or according to a completion status for tasks assigned during a corresponding event.
