Abstract

In a process for visualization of database contents in a computer system, one selects a source database containing a predetermined type of data stored in a source format on a source information storage medium connected to the computer system and transfers the data contained in the source database to the computer system. A denotator-type filtering is applied to said transferred data to produce a database of linearly ordered denotators containing data denotators corresponding to said source format of said data. An order-conversing transformation procedure is then applied to the denotator database, thus producing an array of linearly ordered n-dimensional data vectors, wherein the linear order of data vectors corresponds to the linear order among the data denotators. The array of ordered data vectors is mapped onto a plurality of display objects, each vector being assigned a corresponding display object, each vector component being assigned an attribute of the corresponding display object, and each value of a given vector component being assigned a value of the corresponding attribute of the corresponding display object. Finally, the plurality of display objects is displayed.
