Prioritizing components of a network framework required for implementation of technology
First Claim
1. A method for prioritizing components of an existing network framework comprising the steps of:
- (a) providing a plurality of components required for implementation of a predetermined technology using an existing network framework;
(b) compiling a priority listing of the plurality of components such that the relative position of the plurality of components on the priority listing corresponds to a temporal priority among the plurality of components, the temporal priority being indicative of the order in which the plurality of components are installed for optimal component function;
(c) pictorially representing the existing network framework and the plurality of components;
(d) indicia coding a first component of the existing network framework in order to indicate that the first component must be installed first based on the first component'"'"'s first position on the priority listing; and
(e) indicia coding a second component of the existing network framework in order to indicate that the second component must be installed after the first component based on the first component'"'"'s first position and the second component'"'"'s second position on the priority listing.

Abstract
A system and method are provided for prioritizing components of an existing network framework. First, a plurality of components required for implementation of a predetermined technology using an existing network framework are provided. Next, a priority listing of the components is complied such that the relative position of the components on the priority listing corresponds to a temporal priority among the components. The existing network framework and the components are pictorially represented. Next, a first component of the existing network framework is indicia coded in order to indicate that the first component must be installed first based on the component'"'"'s position on the priority listing. Thereafter, a second component and any remaining components of the existing network framework is indicia encoded in order to indicate that the second component and any remaining components must be installed after the first component based on the second component'"'"'s position on the priority listing.

7. A computer program embodied on a computer readable medium for prioritizing components of an existing network framework comprising:
-
(a) a code segment that provides a plurality of components required for implementation of a predetermined technology using an existing network framework;
(b) a code segment that compiles a priority listing of the plurality of components such that the relative position of the plurality of components on the priority listing corresponds to a temporal priority among the plurality of components, the temporal priority being indicative of the order in which the plurality of components are installed for optimal component function;
(c) a code segment that pictorially represents the existing network framework and the plurality of components;
(d) a code segment that indicia codes a first component of the existing network framework in order to indicate that the first component must be installed first based on the first component'"'"'s first position on the priority listing; and
(e) a code segment that indicia codes a second component of the existing network framework in order to indicate that the second component must be installed after the first component based on the first component'"'"'s first position and the second component'"'"'s second position on the priority listing. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A system for prioritizing components of an existing network framework comprising:
-
(a) logic for providing a plurality of components required for implementation of a predetermined technology using an existing network framework;
(b) logic for compiling a priority listing of the plurality of components such that the relative position of the plurality of components on the priority listing corresponds to a temporal priority among the plurality of components, the temporal priority being indicative of the order in which the plurality of components are installed for optimal component function;
(c) logic for pictorially representing the existing network framework and the plurality of components;
(d) logic for indicia coding a first component of the existing network framework in order to indicate that the first component must be installed first based on the first component'"'"'s first position on the priority listing; and
(e) logic for indicia coding a second component of the existing network framework in order to indicate that the second component must be installed after the first component based on the first component'"'"'s first position and the second component'"'"'s second position on the priority listing. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
