In ViSiElse: A Visual Tool for Behavior Analysis over Time

#' Simulated online shopping behavior time data
#'
#' This dataset shows the buying process of consumers over internet based on a 
#' 5-steps model: need recognition, information search, evaluation, purchase 
#' decision, and post-purchase behavior. This simulated dataset of 100 subjects
#' correspond to the timestamps (in s) of each action of the model (except for
#' the post-purchase behavior) executed by the subjects.
