Abstract
A system, method and article of manufacture are provided for identifying various components of a system for building, management, and support purposes. A pictorial representation of an existing system is first displayed along with a plurality of components thereof. Next, information is presented relating to building, managing, and supporting the components of the existing system by indicia coding the components on the pictorial representation. The building, management, and support information relates more specifically to deliverable features of the components of the existing system that are available in a business offering.
Claims18
A method for visualizing various components of a web architecture framework using an electronic display device to facilitate assessment of the components as part of a comprehensive, integrated solution comprising the steps of:
- (a) identifying strengths, weaknesses, and feature coverage of a product or service;
- (b) displaying on an electronic display device a pictorial representation of a web architecture framework including a plurality of components of the web architecture framework;
- (c) presenting information relating to the coverage of the product or service by non-textually indicia coding the components on the pictorial representation to indicate the availability of those components through the product or service;
- (d) presenting information relating to strengths of a product or service by non-textually indicia coding the components on the pictorial representation to indicate strengths of the products or services in relation to the coded components;
- (e) presenting information relating to weaknesses of a product or service by non-textually indicia coding the components on the pictorial representation to indicate which weaknesses of the product or service in relation to the coded components;
- wherein indicia coding the components facilitates assessment of the components as part of a comprehensive, integrated web architecture solution.
A computer-readable medium having computer-executable code segments for visualizing various components of a web architecture framework on an electronic display device to facilitate assessment of the components as part of a comprehensive, integrated solution comprising:
- (a) a code segment that identifies strengths, weaknesses, and feature coverage of a product or service;
- (b) a code segment that displays on an electronic display device a pictorial representation of a web architecture framework including a plurality of components of a web architecture framework;
- (c) a code segment that presents information relating to the coverage of a product or service by non-textually indicia coding the components on the pictorial representation to indicate the availability of those components through the product or service;
- (d) a code segment that presents information relating to strengths of a product or service by non-textually indicia coding the components on the pictorial representation to indicate strengths of the products or services in relation to the coded components;
- and
- (e) a code segment that presents information relating to weaknesses of a product or service by non-textually indicia coding the components on the pictorial representation to indicate weaknesses of the product or service in relation to the coded components;
- wherein indicia coding the components facilitates assessment of the components as part of a comprehensive, integrated web architecture solution.
