<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To implement the management of lists and other items in an electronic file system. <P>SOLUTION: An electronic file system organizational structure is provided that allows items to be organized in a directed acyclic graph (DAG). While items may be organized hierarchically as in a tree structure, items may also have multiple direct parents. The electronic file system may further have access to multiple different stores. In addition, some of various techniques for managing items as they are manipulated and reorganized across different stores may more closely match a user's intentions and/or have predictable results from users' points of view. At this time, actions performed on one organization do not affect other organizations in unexpected or unintended ways. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI</p> |
