Claim:
1. A method of revealing patterns of events in time-based data comprising: detecting occurrence of events of a system via a sensor network; generating on a processing device a first display of a linear timeline indicating the events within time-based data; transforming the linear timeline of the first display into a second display via the processing device that presents clustering of the events within the time-based data, wherein the second display includes one or more from the group of a stacked linear timeline of the events, a polar timeline of the events, and a helical timeline of the events; in response to detecting an absence in the second display of patterns of the events to identify event associations contributing to an adverse condition of the system, successively transforming the second display to one or more other timelines of the group via the processing device to reveal the patterns of the events; and controlling actions of the system via the processing device based on the revealed patterns to address the adverse condition.
