Abstract
The present invention provides a computer-readable storage medium including a set of instructions for a computer. The instructions include an access routine, a tracking routine, and a modifying routine. The access routine is configured to communicate a default hanging protocol between a network server and a display workstation. The default hanging protocol includes at least one default display rule for displaying a plurality of images at the display workstation. The default display rule is capable of directing the display workstation to present each of the images at a location on a display device of the display workstation and/or in a sequence in which each of the images is presented at the display workstation. The tracking routine is configured to monitor a selection of an additional display rule. The modifying routine is configured to dynamically modify the default hanging protocol based on the selection.
