Abstract
A computing system includes a connection detection system that identifies a set of connected deliverables among a plurality of different deliverables in a data store and timeline generator logic that generates a representation of a timeline having nodes connected by edges, each node representing a deliverable and each edge connecting a pair of nodes corresponding to a connection between the deliverables represented by the pair of nodes connected by the edge. The computing system also includes a user interaction system that controls interaction with the plurality of different deliverables, the user interaction system comprising link setting logic that generates a link setting user interface mechanism that is actuatable to modify one or more connections and surfacing logic that controls a display to display the representation of the timeline and the link setting user interface mechanism.
