METHOD FOR DISPLAYING HIERARCHICAL STRUCTURE INFORMATION AND DEVICE THEREFOR

摘要

PURPOSE:To easily understand the mutual relation of respective information based on hierarchical structure information. CONSTITUTION:A hierarchical structure information storing means 4 stores hierarchical structure data having nodes arranged on the same hierarchy, nodes arranged on the lower positions of respective nodes and relational information between respective information. A correlation computing means 5 computes colors to be arranged on respective nodes based on the hierarchical structure information. A relational line attribute setting means 7 changes the attribute of a relational line connecting between specific information and lower information arranged on its lower position based on relational information between respective information. A display means 13 displays the correlation of respective nodes based on the computed correlation of respective nodes and the attribute of the relational line.
