US Patent:

7788269, Aug 31, 2010
Filed:

Mar 30, 2007
Appl. No.:

11/693720
Inventors:

Marion Behnen - Austin TX, US
Qi Jin - San Jose CA, US
Timo Pfahl - San Jose CA, US
Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY
International Classification:

G06F 17/30
US Classification:

707754, 715526
Abstract:

A method, computer program product, and system for integrating faceted and predefined multi-dimensional search interfaces are provided. The method, computer program product, and system provide for displaying a first set of results from a search request in a faceted search interface and a second set of results from the search request in a predefined multi-dimensional search interface, and responsive to a user action in the predefined multi-dimensional search interface affecting a scope of the search request, synchronizing the faceted search interface with changes in the predefined multi-dimensional search interface without requiring a separate user action in the faceted search interface.
