CROSS-SYSTEM DATA AGGREGATION

摘要

A first user interaction is detected indicating a user selection of a document. Relationship information on the document is accessed to identify related documents. Relationship information is accessed on the related documents to identify other related documents. This continues until all related documents are identified. The documents are displayed, on a single user interface display, in a aggregate view and each document is represented by a document display pane that shows summary information from the document.
