Abstract
A method for translating to and from an hierarchical information system, comprises identifying a non-hierarchical information system containing information stored in a non-hierarchical manner; developing a translation map that identifies organizational and content based rules for translating the non-hierarchical information into an hierarchical information system; and translating the non-hierarchical information for storage into the hierarchical information system according to the rules for translating.
