【発明の名称】自動編成を提供してサーチ基準をフィルタリングするユーザインタフェース
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2003529830
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A user interface for querying and displaying records from a database employs a physical metaphor for the process of constructing queries and viewing results. The criteria are represented in displays as symbols that can be included in a query. The display of the symbols are ranked in terms of their respective utility, where the utility is inferred from the commands received to generate the queries. In one embodiment, the ranking is based on frequency of use. The ranking may be indicated by various display effects. For example, in an embodiment, the search criteria are indicated as strings of beads in a three-dimensional scene, each bead representing a criterion and each string representing a different category. For example the criteria, drama, action, suspense, and horror may be included in a category of genre. Criteria are selected to form a query by moving corresponding beads to a query string which is then submitted to perform the search. Those beads that correspond to highly ranked criteria are shown in the foreground of the scene and those that correspond to lesser ranked criteria are shown in the background. The beads can be rotated from background to foreground with suitable commands.
