A couple months ago I got the assignment of thinking up conceptual way to represent lots of data that also would have certain relations with each other or being assigned to a group or something. What I came up with was a relational particle system.

What does it do in essence?
Well it represents every data item as a little particle and the particle will inherit some of the data properties. On the base of these properties relations with other particles are made when a single particle is selected. The particle that has a relation with the selected particle will be atracted to the selected particle and in this way form a group of related particles. The other particles that do not have a relation will try to keep away from the group.
