发明名称 VISUALIZATION OF GRAPH-STRUCTURED NAME SPACES
摘要 The basic idea comprised of the present invention is to represent a graph structure with the help of links, e.g., HTML links, by aid of which the user can navigate through the output of the name space and to avoid repeated work, e.g., display, output, etc., of the same object of a directed graph having meshes during scanning the graph by generating such a link to the location in which the object was output before instead of outputting it repeatedly. This is achieved by generating and maintaining a reference list during scanning the graph in which each object is identified uniquely and some information is stored for each object whether the object was already processed or not. In case it was already processed just a HTML link to said prior output is generated. Otherwise the object is processed, e.g., is output and the list is updated correspondingly. By using such an HTML link an output structure can be realized which enables the user to quickly understand the particular structure of the graph and to realize easily when there are different paths leading to one and the same object.
