ABSTRACT:
The subject invention pertains to interaction with multidimensional data. More specifically, interactions can be constrained to a limited subset of a multidimensional data cube, namely a subcube. Subsequent to or concurrently with subcube creation, query execution or other interactions such as calculations can be consolidated or restricted to the smaller subcube query space rather than the typically enormous main cube. Multiple subcubes can also be created and nested to gradually reduce the query space. Deletion of one subcube can cause a reversion back to a previously defined or hierarchical parent subcube.
