A computing device having a graphical interface system for navigating computer programs is provided. The system includes a navigation display showing an organizational model of a computer program that is formed by concentric rings representing levels of options within the computer program. At least one of the rings is an active ring, which is emphasized to show selectable options. The options represent either categories of other options or features of the computer program. The options may be represented by icons or words. A method for navigating a computer program using the organizational model includes using a graphical user interface to select options on an active ring. Selecting a category option activates an inner ring that displays options related to the previously selected option on the next higher ring. The user continues navigating through inner rings until a feature option is selected, which invokes a feature of the computer program.

A rule-based search engine is used in conjunction with an automated network-based workflow system (which in turn is interfaced with an organizational database) to efficiently determine service routing requests from users/clients. The search engine employs search techniques adapted for use with multi-dimensional tree structures that define the matrix organizational model. Workflow services are preferably represented by roles that can be used to represent workflow actors in the workflow routing rules. These roles are preferably evaluated at run-time to best match recipients depending on the organization context from which the routing request is made.

A distributed computing system conforms to a multi-level, hierarchical organizational model. One or more control nodes provide for the efficient and automated allocation and management of computing functions and resources within the distributed computing system in accordance with the organization model.

A method for maintaining professional-social networks can begin with the automatic creation of a professional-social network for each member of an organization by a professional-social network tool based upon electronic communication analysis. Each member can have a uniquely-identified organizational position within an organizational model of the organization. A professional-social network can be comprised of nodes representing the member's contacts that can be connected to the member by relationships that express an interaction context. In response to a change from a currently-held first organizational position to a second organizational position for a specified member, the specified member can be dissociated from the professional-social network of the first organizational position. The specified member can then be associated with the professional-social network of the second organizational position. Tacit information contained within the professional-social network for performing the job functions of the second organizational position can be inherited by the specified member.
