DOCUMENT DISPLAY SYSTEM

1 . A document display system comprising:

a tile having tile dimensions and a tile position;

a spatial modifier adapted to alter said tile dimensions and said tile position; and

a variable display region, within said tile dimensions, adapted to portray a document representation having document data with multiple document abstraction levels, wherein said document representation alternates between said document abstraction levels dependant upon said tile dimensions.

2 . The system of claim 1 further comprising a tile cluster of multiple tiles, at least two of which are spatially adjacent.

3 . The system of claim 2 wherein said tile dimensions include a hexagonal perimeter.

4 . The system of claim 2 wherein at least two tiles of said tile cluster include interrelated document data.

5 . The system of claim 4 wherein said document data includes at least a document title and document text.

6 . The system of claim 5 wherein said tile dimensions include a hexagonal perimeter.

7 . The system of claim 6 further comprising an update track adapted to measure modifications to said document data.

8 . The system of claim 7 wherein said tile dimensions are adapted to alter based on said update value.

9 . The system of claim 8 wherein said variable display region is adapted to visually alter based on said update value.

10 . The system of claim 9 wherein said document representation is adapted to visually alter in color tine based on said update value.

11 . The system of claim 7 further comprising multiple, distinct tile clusters with adjacent tiles based on said interrelated document data.

12 . A method of displaying documents, said method comprising:

obtaining document data having at least two abstraction levels;

representing one of said abstraction levels in a document representation within a a variable display region of a tile having a tile position and tile dimensions;

spatially modifying said tile by depth and a position; and

altering said document representation between one of said at least two abstraction levels based on said tile dimensions.

13 . The method of claim 12 further comprising sequencing multiple tiles having a document representation based on interrelated document data.

14 . The method of claim 13 wherein said representing step includes representing said document data within a hexagonal tile.

15 . The method of claim 14 wherein said altering step includes altering step includes altering said document representation between the natural document and an abbreviated representation.

16 . The method of claim 15 wherein said altering step includes altering said document representation based on an abbreviated representation based on at least one of a group consisting of a title, an abstract, a summary, a keyword representation, and combinations thereof.

17 . The method of claim 15 further comprising the step of tracking updates to said document data via an update track adapted to measure modifications to said document data.

18 . The method of claim 17 further comprising the step of altering said tile dimensions based on said update track.

19 . The method of claim 17 further comprising the step of altering a color tint of said variable display region based on said update track.

20 . A method of displaying documents, said method comprising:

obtaining document data for multiple documents having at least two abstraction levels;

representing said document data in a document representation within a hexagonal tile having a tile position and tile dimensions;

sequencing said hexagonal tiles based on interrelated document data;

spatially modifying said tile based on a depth value and a position value;

altering said document representation between one of said at least two abstraction levels based on said tile dimensions; and

tracking updates to said document data via an update track adapted to measure modifications to said document data.
