  • Patent number: 5241645
    Abstract: A computer system for creating and manipulating subsets of dynamic information systems models of organizations. Generally, the system includes a plurality of dynamicallly linked modelers. The system includes a filter for creating a subset of a model. Each model subset is defined by operator-determined selection criteria. The subset is created by applying the selection criteria to the design data set of the model to be filtered. The resulting model subset may be displayed in a graphical representation. Such representations may enable the user to dynamically interact with the system.

  • Patent number: 5146591
    Abstract: A computer system for dynamically modeling information systems of organizations. The system includes a plurality of editors which enable a user to interact with the system. Included in the system is an information modeler, an information flow modeler, and a logic modeler for creating, analyzing and modifying design data associated with each modeler. Each of the modelers are dynamically interlinked, such that a change to one design data set will affect a corresponding change in other design data sets. The system includes graphic representations associated with each of the modelers to enable a user to interact with the system. The objects of each of the graphic representations may also be dynamically linked, such that a change in one representation affects a substantially immediate change in other representations.
