<p>An interaction flow matrix (10) lists the source and sink elements of a process on the axes of a matrix. The interactions are entered in the nodes of the matrix according to a chosen convention to indicate the direction of the flow of the interaction. A visual indication of the priority of the status of the interactions is provided by the use of visual coding. The nodes of the matrix can be electronically linked to a tabular explanation of the interactions (50). A pyramid matrix (31, 32, 33), can be used to provide one or more levels of supervision. The matrix may be applied in the control of a process (71) in which monitors (73) update the matrix (74) and wherein the process is controlled by controllers (72) in response to the matrix information.</p> |
