A stochastic gravitational-wave background can arise from a wide variety of processes including inflation, cosmic strings, phase transitions in the early universe, pre-Big- Bang models and the superposition of astrophysical sources such as gamma-ray bursts. In addition to this background, the gravitational-wave sky may include a significant foreground from nearby point-like sources. In general, the angular distribution of gravitational-wave power is not strongly constrained. We thus propose a novel framework for directional analysis of persistent (non-bursting) and unmodeled gravitational waves with a network of interferometers, which allows for arbitrary angular distributions of gravitational-wave power. )
