Description

Discussion of Network and Attribute Model

Network and Attribute Model

  • Trey's "five minutes"
    • tweak #1 - every node should have a unique ID per session (NID)
    • tweak #2 - attributes should have unique IDs as well (AID); each NID is associated with a set of AIDs; related nodes may share many attributes; where data is shared, references are used

Something Approximating Concensus

  • each loaded node has a unique ID (NID)
  • a unique binding table of NIDs <-> Names exists per network

  • data is loaded as one or more worksheets, keyed by node Name
  • when you load a worksheet, you have to specify which (if any) networks to apply the data (default = currentNetwork)
  • when you load a network, you have to specify which (if any) worksheets you want to apply (default = all?)
  • as a UI point, you could also preselect networks (or worksheets) prior to loading worksheets (or networks) to indicate binding
  • when a worksheet is applied to one or more networks, a reference is placed in the network binding table to the worksheet cell
  • data table cells should be able to reference other cells, networks, vizmap properties; cells could contain formulas as well
