METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR GENERATING AND DISPLAYING AN INTERACTIVE DYNAMIC GRAPH VIEW OF MULTIPLY CONNECTED OBJECTS
First Claim
1. A method for generating a graph view on a user interface in a computing environment, comprising:
- at a server, generating coordinate data for a graph representing multiply connected objects;
transmitting the coordinate data to a client as lightweight object data; and
at the client, based on the lightweight object data, rendering an interactive dynamic graph view of the multiply connected objects on a user interface.

Abstract
A method and system for generating and displaying an interactive dynamic graph view of multiply connected objects, is provided. One implementation involves a process implemented in a system for generating a graph view on a user interface in a computing environment, including: at a server, generating coordinate data for a graph representing multiply connected objects; transmitting the coordinate data to a client as lightweight object data; and at the client, based on the lightweight object data, rendering an interactive dynamic graph view of the multiply connected objects on a user interface such as a browser client using vector graphics.

8. A computer program product for generating a graph view on a user interface in a computing environment, comprising a computer usable medium including a computer readable program including program instructions, wherein the computer readable program, when executed on a computer system causes the computer system to:
-
at a server, generate coordinate data for a graph representing multiply connected objects and transmit the coordinate data to a client as lightweight object data; and based on the lightweight object data, render an interactive dynamic graph view of the multiply connected objects on a user interface at a client. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
