Abstract:
1. A computer-implemented method for visualizing digital signal data, the computer-implemented method comprising: (a) reading digital signal data representing a signal; (b) partitioning the digital signal data into non-overlapping portions; (c) reading an initial subset of the digital signal data in each portion; (d) displaying, on a display, a visualization of the entire signal based upon all digital signal data read from each portion; (e) reading a next subset of the digital signal data from each portion, wherein the next subset contains samples from the digital signal data that do not overlap with any previously-read digital signal data; (f) displaying, on the display, a visualization of the entire signal based upon all portions of the signal that have been read from the digital signal data; and (g) repeating steps (e) and (f) until the visualization reflects all of the digital signal data; wherein said method is performed by a computer system configured to perform said method.
