Abstract

A computer-implemented method of controlling operations for execution includes displaying, in a display device area that controls a process of operations, a current container providing at least a first operation to the process, and a linear sequence representing parent containers of the current container organized in a hierarchy. The method includes receiving, in a system generating the display device area, a partial-performance request identifying a subset of the parent containers defined between the current container and a level in the hierarchy. The method includes performing, in response to the partial-performance request, the first operation and those of the operations that the subset of the parent containers provide to the process.
