Editor Mapping Comparison

Use Case: Editor Concept Mapping Comparison

Actors

Primary Actor: An editor of concepts (or part thereof)

Description

A "(Concept, Name, Reference) author" can query the SEEK system to retrieve the relationships between concepts.

When editing a concept and/or the relationships between concepts, an editor should be presented with existing mappings to assist with determination of the need for a new mapping.

The intent is to make both the process of mapping easier, and to reduce the likelihood of duplicate mappings.

This is likely to be a highly visual interaction within an editor environment. Must be very responsive.
