LiveGraph

LiveGraph is an open-source real-time data series plotter system developed at Monash University.
The main objective of the LiveGraph system is to provide an efficient tool for first-stage exploratory data analysis.
LiveGraph's graphical user interface allows selecting which data series are to be displayed very quickly and conveniently. Scaling options allow for a quick comparison of data series that have different scales by transforming the data onto a common scale. While lacking more advanced statistical analysis functions, LiveGraph is a very efficient tool for initial and visual data analysis.
In addition, LiveGraph automatically updates the graphs, therefore allowing to monitor the data in real-time, while it is being produced by an application, such as a simulation. Written in Java, the system can run in any environment.
The system provides a Java class library that can be used to create and manage large data files that can be read by the plotter. For developers using other programming languages, a detailed data file specification is provided.
LiveGraph includes an API that allows to integrate its real-time potting capability into any Java application. The project homepage provides documentation and tutorials on how to use LiveGraph within third party software. The system is available under a BSD-style license.
