Abstract
Disclosed is a computerized information presentation system for dynamically organizing information in order to present to a user previously unrecognized relationships among portions of the information. The system comprises information description storage for storing information comprising a plurality of concepts and for each concept knowledge of allowable attributes for the concept and one or more of attributes, attribute values, and relationships among attributes and attribute values. The system further comprises categorization knowledge storage for storing knowledge of criteria for placing the concepts into categories and context determination for determining a current context based on system state. Mapping knowledge storage is included for storing knowledge of mappings between a particular context and the presentation of information. The system also includes dynamic categorization for dynamically placing the concepts into categories for presentation using the categorization criteria, the current context and the knowledge of mappings and for displaying on a user screen selected concepts and categories.
