  • Patent number: 9405806
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a system is provided. The system includes a memory, at least one processor coupled to the memory and an object network modeler component executable by the at least one processor. The memory stores an object network including a plurality of objects, the plurality of objects including a first object, a second object, a third object, and a fourth object. The object network modeler component is configured to implicitly associate, within the object network, the first object with the second object and explicitly associate, within the object network, the third object with the fourth object.
