Abstract: L'invention concerne des techniques permettant de gérer plusieurs hiérarchies de données, à partir d'une hiérarchie native unique comprenant l'enregistrement d'un ensemble de routines pour chaque hiérarchie étrangère. L'ensemble de routine effectue un ensemble d'opérations sur des données de la hiérarchie associées à un noeud. On reçoit une demande d'utilisateur qui indique une opération particulière sur des données particulières ne correspondant pas à un noeud de la hiérarchie native. En fonction de cette demande d'utilisateur, une première opération sur un premier ensemble d'un ou de plusieurs noeuds d'une première hiérarchie qui n'est pas la hiérarchie native est déterminée. Une routine particulière correspondant à la première opération est sélectionnée parmi un premier ensemble de routines enregistrées pour la première hiérarchie, puis est invoquée. Ces techniques permettent à un utilisateur d'utiliser une interface cohérente avec la hiérarchie native pour obtenir des données dans n'importe quelle hiérarchie.
