Abstract

See full text

Relational data base concepts are employed to establish many-to-many relationships amongst components which are ultimately used to supply position and size information for elements appearing in a graphical data structure. This method also facilitates the management of the production of sets of graphical business charts and/or other graphical information including architectural plans, other real world models, and even three-dimensional graphic components. A method for implicit association is established so that components are not manually related to one another, but rather by interpretation of relational data contained in a set of tables. Accordingly, a method is provided to reduce redundant specification, storage and effort usually found in business tools and applications that automate the production of business charts.
