  • Publication number: 20220215343
    Abstract: A system includes processing hardware, a user interface (UI), and a system memory storing a software code. The processing hardware executes the software code to receive from a first user, via the UI, project data identifying a project including multiple tasks, determine, using the project data, a node-based graph of the project including the tasks, receive from a first user or a second user via the UI, task action data producing a modification to the node-based graph, and identify, based on the modification to the node-based graph, one of a conflict or a potential future conflict among at least two nodes of the node-based graph. The software code further identifies a conflict avoidance strategy for resolving the conflict or preventing the potential future conflict, and displays, via the UI, the conflict avoidance strategy to the first user or the second user, or performs the conflict avoidance strategy.

  • Publication number: 20220215326
    Abstract: A system includes processing hardware, and a memory storing software code including a hierarchical user interface (UI). The processing hardware executes the software code to receive from a first user, via the hierarchical UI, project data describing a project, and a project task for completion by a second user, and to generate, using the project data, a node-based graph of the project including the project task. The processing hardware further executes the software code to receive, via the hierarchical UI in response to performance of at least a portion of the project task by the second user, a task progression or task completion data, update, using the task progression or task completion data, the node-based graph, and display to the first user, via the hierarchical UI, the updated node-based graph and the task progression data or task completion data.
