Abstract: A method according to which a group of information sources referenced in a database of containers and information sources is connected. Information containers are displayed on display means and controlled via interface means, implementing a device which allows the operators to perform operations on the information containers. The operations on an information container are recorded by the device in an operations log of a digital processing system, and a processing of the operations log determines relationship links among the information sources. The data are manipulated by the operators intuitively and naturally in the form of containers, and objective relationship links among the information sources are established without requiring subjective interpretation by the operators.

Abstract: A method to assist with decision making, according to which a plurality of information sources, presumed to be useful for analyzing a situation, are recorded in a database of a device, including a digital processing system with display means and interface means in order to perform interactions on information containers and/or on contents of the information containers, presented to the operators in visual form by the display means. Every interaction of an operator with an information container is stored by the digital processing system and is interpreted so as to identify an operation on the corresponding information sources. The device establishes a list of information containers of the database that were not the subject of any interaction during the work session and information sources of the database that were not the subject of any operation during the work session.
