Abstract:
In one embodiment, an apparatus may receive search results from a database. The search results may be from a search request that requests database entries associated with a project. The apparatus may display a timeline, where the timeline includes display regions that correspond to time periods. The apparatus may display a visual indicator in one of the display regions that corresponds to a given time period. The visual indicator may correspond to a result item included in the search results. The result item may be associated with a date, and the date is in the given time period. The apparatus may retrieve information from the database, where the information is limited to data stored in the database as of the date. The apparatus may display the information in addition to the timeline on a display. The information may include data other than the result item.
