System and method for supporting collaborative activity

摘要

A system for supporting collaborative activity in a network includes a storage component storing data related to the network and a model of the network; a processor that accesses the stored data and the model to process the data according to the model, where the stored data relates to the collaborative activity including user-defined data created by interaction of a user and the model, and context data related to the user, where the user-defined data and the context data, as metadata, are stored in the storage component; and a user interface, provided by the processor, that presents the user-defined data, the context data, and the model in a form readable by the user, the interface permitting the user to define a set of arbitrary domains, relate the user-defined data to the domains, and view relationships between the user-defined data and the context data, and the domains.

主权项

1. A system for creating a contextual work environment, comprising:
a processor; and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium accessible to the processor and having encoded thereon machine instructions that when executed, cause the processor to create an interface for implementing the contextual work, and the processor:
accesses a model of a network and creates a data store mechanism to store data related to the network;enables a user data input to allow input, through the interface, of user data, the user data related to information about a user of the network and information about an activity of the user of the network;enables, using the data store mechanism, storage of the data related to information about the user of the network and information about an activity of the user with the data related to the network; andenables a data store access, though the interface, that makes the stored data accessible, through the interface, to one or more of a plurality of users of the network.
