Abstract

In general, a specification of multiple contexts that are related according to a hierarchy is received. Relationships are determined among three or more metadata objects, and at least some of the metadata objects are grouped into one or more respective groups. Each of at least some of the groups is based on a selected one of the contexts and is represented by a node in a diagram. Relationships among the nodes are determined based on the relationships among the metadata objects in the groups represented by the nodes, and a visual representation is generated of the diagram including the nodes and the relationships among the nodes.
