RESEARCH AND NAVIGATION ASSISTANCE FOR ELECTRONIC DESCRIPTION LANGUAGES (EDDL)

摘要

A method and system to implement a search function to bypass a sequential hierarchical menu selection path for access to a device parameter, generating hierarchical menus based on an electronic device description (EDD) and interpreting them using an EDD engine. The search function provides a first set of parameters without rendering display properties to provide the user with a simple initial display of possible matches. A user selection of a desired device parameter is received and a device parameter view containing the desired device parameter is provided,can be retrieved and rendered on a user interface.
