Claim One:
1. A system that provides a canvas interface to facilitate summarization of analyses with respect to data included in a database, the system comprising: at least one processor coupled to memory for execution of components including: a user interface component that is operatively coupled to a database and a workspace, the user interface component receives an operation associated with a first entity included in the database, the user interface component displays in the workspace a result of the operation; a documentation component that records to a data store a semantic history of both the operation and the first entity; a mapping component that graphically displays in a canvas a map of the semantic history, the first entity being represented in the map as a first hub and the operation that acts on the first entity being represented in the map as one of a plurality of spokes that radiate from the first hub to terminate on a second entity represented in the map as a second hub, wherein at least one other operation associated with another of the plurality of spokes that does not terminate on a hub is displayed as a dead-end outcome of the analyses, the plurality of spokes representing one or more branches of the map, the mapping component being configured to receive an input via the canvas, the input including an annotation indicating a quality of at least one of a hub or an associated branch of the map; and an intelligence component to infer a goal associated with the analyses or a solution associated with the analyses based in part on an examination of the quality indicated by the annotation.
