Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and system for displaying overlapping text elements on a graphical user interface. Initially, it is determined, whether a first display elements overlaps a second display element. If, the first display elements overlaps the second display element, then a text stack is created of all overlapping display elements. Only an identified display element is displayed on the text stack. Finally, a scroll mechanism is provided which allows a user to scroll through and display the first and second set of display elements which overlap.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method includes displaying a segment on a touch panel, the segment having a starting point and an end point corresponding to a first page and a last page, respectively, of a document, in response to a predetermined manipulation by a user. An indication is received that the user has performed at least one of touching a point on the segment and sliding a point on the segment. The document is scrolled to reach a page corresponding to the position of the point on the segment, in response to the indication. The document is scrolled, by a computer processor, on a page-by-page basis, in response to the user sliding the point in a direction perpendicular to the segment.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and system to optimize the display of related elements. The method includes a processor obtaining data elements and groups of data elements, and relationships between data elements in different groups and identifying parent-child dependencies between the groups. The processor identifies a root group among the groups: the root group has no parent dependency. The processor orders data elements in the root group, based on a predetermined policy and determines a display order of data elements in groups that are not root groups by optimizing a length of relationship lines representing the relationships between the data elements in different groups. The processor also determines a scroll position for each group and displays, in a graphical user interface on the display, the groups with a scroll bars at the scroll position in each group, and the relationships between data elements in different groups.

Abstract: A system may administer a survey to a user who is test driving a vehicle. The system may identify a profile for the user. The system can detect a driving condition from external devices, for example, sensors on the vehicle. A first query of the survey, based on the driving condition, can be sent to a client device like a cell phone. The system can then receive an answer to the query, and analyze the answer as well as the driving condition. Based on the analysis, the system can then send a second query to the client device.

Abstract: A display apparatus is adapted to display a plurality of graph structures by aggregating the plurality of graph structures into a single graph structure, where each of the graph structures is made up of a plurality of elements. An acquisition hardware unit acquires graph structures at a plurality of time points in a time series. A distinguishing hardware unit distinguishes unchanged elements and changed elements in the graph structures. An aggregating hardware aggregates the graph structures. A display hardware unit displays the aggregated graph structure such that the unchanged elements and the changed elements are identifiable. A contracting hardware unit contracts two or more unchanged elements and, in response to displaying the aggregated graph structure, displays a single contracted element instead of the two or more unchanged elements.
