METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR GENERATING AND DISPLAYING AN INTERACTIVE DYNAMIC CULLING 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 on a user interface;
wherein the rendered graph view includes representations of a plurality of the multiply connected objects selected by depth culling the graph according to graph depth display control information.

Abstract
A method and system for generating a graph view on a user interface in a computing environment, is provided. One implementation involves, 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 on a user interface; wherein the rendered graph view includes representations of a plurality of the multiply connected objects selected by depth culling the graph according to graph depth display control information.
