Abstract
In one example embodiment, a system and method is shown as including identifying a context set data defining a context within which a person resides. Next, an operation is executed so as to retrieve the context set data that includes person data and relationship between persons data, the relationship between persons data including certain characteristics that define the person in the context set. An operation may be executed so as to perform a set operation on the person in the context set so as to generate a graph set. Further, an operation may be executed to render a graphical representation of the context set.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- identifying, by a server, a context set associated with a plurality of members;
- retrieving, by the server, context set data, the context set data including relationship data defining relationships between at least two of the plurality of members;
- generating, by the server, a graph set by performing at least one set operation on the context set data;
- determining, by the server, where nodes connect to edges based on the graph set, the edges representing relationship connections between a plurality of nodes in a star topology, each of the nodes representing at least one of the plurality of members;
- encoding, by the server, the graph set into a graph set file;
- generating, by the server, a rendered graph set based on the graph set file;
- and
- transmitting, by the server over a communications network, the rendered graph set to a device, the transmitting causing the device to display a graphical representation of the rendered graph set in a graphical user interface of the device.
A system comprising:
- one or more hardware processors;
- and
- a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more hardware processors, cause the one or more hardware processors to perform operations comprising:
- identifying a context set associated with a plurality of members;
- retrieving context set data, the context set data including relationship data defining relationships between at least two of the plurality of members;
- generating a graph set by performing at least one set operation on the context set data;
- determining where nodes connect to edges based on the graph set, the edges representing relationship connections between a plurality of nodes in a star topology, each of the nodes representing at least one of the plurality of members;
- encoding the graph set into a graph set file;
- generating a rendered graph set based on the graph set file;
- and
- transmitting the rendered graph set to a device, the transmitting causing the device to display a graphical representation of the rendered graph set in a graphical user interface of the device.
A non-transitory machine readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor of a machine, cause the machine to perform operations comprising:
- identifying a context set associated with a plurality of members;
- retrieving context set data, the context set data including relationship data defining relationships between at least two of the plurality of members;
- generating a graph set by performing at least one set operation on the context set data;
- determining where nodes connect to edges based on the graph set, the edges representing relationship connections between a plurality of nodes in a star topology, each of the nodes representing at least one of the plurality of members;
- encoding the graph set into a graph set file;
- generating a rendered graph set based on the graph set file;
- and
- transmitting the rendered graph set to a device, the transmitting causing the device to display a graphical representation of the rendered graph set in a graphical user interface of the device.
