Abstract

A method accesses information related to a reference entity through a display device. The method includes providing an ontology describing the reference entity and entities, the reference entity and the entities being classes of the ontology or being arranged into classes, the classes having respective properties; receiving information for identifying the reference entity; and calculating a network of entities out of the entities, the entities having relationships with the reference entity, according to the properties. The method further includes identifying portions available on an area of the display device, according to the classes of the ontology; assigning the entities to at least one of the display area portions; selecting a display area portion out of the display area portions; and displaying, on the display device, images and/or text data for indicating at least part of the entities of the network assigned to the selected display area portion.
