ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed, in general, to network modeling, and more specifically, to systems and methods for generating and displaying a symbolic representation of a network model. The present invention provides a method of graphically displaying data on a display device of a processing system and a computer system employing the method. The processing system includes a memory for storing tasks, a processing circuit for executing ones of the tasks, and a display device. The display device, which is associated with the processing circuit, is operative to provide a display area that is accessible to executed ones of the tasks. The display area is capable of displaying a symbolic representation of a network model. The memory includes a network modeling task that is retrievable and executable by the processing circuit to create a set of associated data records representing network elements within the network model. The associated data records include multiplicity indicia for providing an abbreviated expression of quantities of the network elements within the network model. The multiplicity indicia simplifying the modeling task and facilitating the display of a symbolic representation of the network model on the display device.
