In a method for processing messages exchanged on a social network, a data processing apparatus gathers from the social network a reference set of messages pertaining to a user-selected reference context. The data processing apparatus then applies a multidimensional aggregation to the reference set of messages, whereby the messages of the reference set are grouped in an multidimensional array of groups having at least two dimensions. In each dimension, the array comprises a number of groups that correspond to a number of values of a certain message feature. Each group in a dimension corresponding to a certain message feature aggregates all the messages of the reference set whose message feature has a same value. Then, a user interface is displayed, which shows the reference set of messages as aggregated in at least two dimensions of the array.

Processing of messages exchanged on a social network

A method accesses information related to a reference entity through a display device. The method includes providing an ontology describing the reference entity and entities, the reference entity and the entities being classes of the ontology or being arranged into classes, the classes having respective properties; receiving information for identifying the reference entity; and calculating a network of entities out of the entities, the entities having relationships with the reference entity, according to the properties. The method further includes identifying portions available on an area of the display device, according to the classes of the ontology; assigning the entities to at least one of the display area portions; selecting a display area portion out of the display area portions; and displaying, on the display device, images and/or text data for indicating at least part of the entities of the network assigned to the selected display area portion.
