Display of dynamic data as a notebook

摘要

A method, system and program for presenting dynamic data on a display. The dynamic data is displayed in a notebook as a plurality of groups, each group assigned to a page in the notebook. The dynamic data is monitored to detect a change in state of the dynamic data. In response to a detected change, a determination is made that the dynamic data should be regrouped in response to the change in state. The notebook is then displayed according to the regrouped dynamic data. Each page in the notebook has a tab which is displayed according to the state of the group assigned to that page. In response to the detected change of the dynamic data, the display of the tab may also be changed. Typically, the top page in a notebook has a window. A child window can be created by copying the window outside the notebook in an adjacent display. When the notebook is closed in response to a user command, the child window is automatically closed in response to closing the notebook.
