ABSTRACT:
A system and method for navigating between two or more programs, each program capable of being instantiated to form a program instance. The method includes the steps of: embedding and enabling engine in an origin program and instantiating the origin program; invoking the enabling engine for the origin program instance, which is responsive to the origin program instance; interrogating a rule-base and retrieving one or more conditions associated with the origin program instance; utilizing the one or more conditions to query and evaluate data managed by the origin program instance; establishing and displaying one or more navigation paths to a user via a graphical display by utilizing results of the evaluation; enabling the user selection of a navigation path from the one or more navigation paths thus displayed; and instantiating a target program associated with the navigation path selected by the user and traversing to the target program instance by utilizing.
