The time band would specified by the user as part of the query. I have to interpolate/repeat the data within this period/band.

Also, why repeat the data like that? Why not just plot the actual data against a standard grid based on the time interval specified?

I agree that such a thing is fine when plotting it against a grid. But, let's say I want to generate reports out this data, which should indicate the value (CPU_USAGE here) at each time interval specified. I could have done so at the report application level, but what if it is third-party?

Thanks,
