Abstract
Systems and methods are presented to dynamically generate multiple hierarchies of inter-object relationships based on object attribute values. In one aspect, a data structure includes a first virtual object data field to represent a first object of multiple objects in a data store. A second virtual object data field represents a second object of the multiple objects. Attributes of the first object intersect with attributes of the second object to form multiple hierarchies of inter-object relationships.
