Systems and methods for dynamically generating a schema representing
multiple hierarchies of inter-object relationships are described. In one
aspect, a polyarchical query language data structure includes first,
second, and third data fields. The first data field is used to specify a
particular schema for presenting or managing a plurality of objects in a
data polyarchy based on values of attributes in the objects. The second
data field is to indicate an attribute of interest. The third data field
indicates how one or more objects that include the attribute of interest
are to be presented or managed with respect to one or more participating
dimensions of inter-object relationships based on the schema.
