First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method performed by a computer for managing information display, comprising:
- receiving a message indicating that information of a resource is to be displayed; and
forming a user interface for displaying the resource information by defining a pane in which to display the information and selecting a renderer operable to render the information in the pane, wherein selecting further comprises evaluating a property of the resource and a user context, and associating the resource with a resource class by in order of priority evaluating parameters contained in the message to identify a resource class, examining parent resource type to identify a resource class, and using default system settings to identify a resource class.

65. A system for managing information display, comprising:
-
a Web Definition Framework proxy operable to receive a message indicating that information of a plurality of resources is to be displayed and to define a pane in which to display the information; a layout provider operable to select, based on a user role, a user viewing interest, and a resource property, a controller operable to define a layout for navigation through the information in the pane; a renderer provider operable to select, based on a user role, a user viewing interest, and a resource property, a renderer for organizing the display of the resources'"'"' information in the layout and to select, based on a user role, a user viewing interest, and a resource property, a renderer operable to render the information in the organization, wherein the renderer is selected by evaluating a property of the resource, and associating the resource with a resource class by in order of priority evaluating parameters contained in the message to identify a resource class, examining parent resource type to identify a resource class, and using default system settings to identify a resource class; and a command provider operable to determine whether a resource has an associated action and to determine, if the resource has an associated action, a label for the action; wherein the pane, layout, organization, and rendered information comprise a user interface for displaying information.
