Abstract: A computer-implemented method including generating and displaying graphical user interface on display screen of apparatus; receiving request to move at least one group of objects to target area on graphical user interface, detecting when at least one obstacle lies in path between target area and at least one group of objects; when it is detected that at least one obstacle lies in path, generating instructions to control movement of objects of at least one group in randomized manner, wherein instructions indicate at least one random variable parameter to be employed during movement of given object in at least one group; and executing the instructions to control movement of objects of at least one group from their respective starting locations to target area on graphical user interface.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for rendering a user interface, the method including providing a digital map, the digital map having a first area surrounding at least partly a target area, defining a point of rotation on the digital map, providing locator co-ordinates in respect to the digital map, rendering, on the user interface, provided locator co-ordinates within first area of the digital map and rotating, about the point of rotation, the digital map to align the target area in a predetermined direction with respect to the user interface. Disclosed also is a computing device for rendering a user interface on a display thereof.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes generating and displaying graphical user interface on a display screen of apparatus; receiving a request to move at least one group of objects to a target area on the graphical user interface, and detecting when at least one obstacle lies in a path between the target area and at least one group of objects. When it is detected that at least one obstacle lies in the path, instructions are generated to control the movement of objects of the at least one group in a randomized manner. The instructions indicate at least one random variable parameter to be employed during the movement of a given object in at least one group. The instructions are executed to control the movement of the objects of the at least one group from their respective starting locations to a target area on the graphical user interface.

Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus (100) comprising a display screen (104) and a processor (112). The processor is configured to generate and display a graphical user interface (102, 304) on the display screen, receive a user request (202) to execute a requested action (210) on the graphical user interface, send the user request to a server (204, 308), execute an intermediate action (206) on the graphical user interface, whilst waiting for the server to create and provide instructions pertaining to the user request, receive instructions (208) pertaining to the user request from the server, terminate execution of the intermediate action and execute the received instructions pertaining to the user request on the graphical user interface. Disclosed is also a system comprising a server communicably coupled to a plurality of apparatuses collaborating via respective graphical user interfaces.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for rendering a user interface (200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700), the method comprising providing a digital map (206, 306, 406, 506, 606, 706), the digital map comprising a first area (208, 408, 5 508, 608, 708) surrounding at least partly a target area (212, 412, 512, 612, 712), defining a point of rotation (516) on digital map, providing locator co-ordinates in respect to digital map, rendering, on user interface, provided locator co-ordinates (210, 410, 510, 610, 710) within first area of digital map and rotating, about point of rotation, digital map to align target area in a predetermined direction (r) with respect to user interface. Disclosed also is a computing device (204, 304, 404, 504, 604, 704) for rendering a user interface on a display (202, 302, 402, 502, 602, 702) thereof.
