问题描述
我要寻找一个类似Visio的工具，将帮助我在组件级吸取我的信息系统。
I am looking for a Visio-like tool that would help me draw my information system at the component level.
该设计将无法容纳在一张纸上，我想怀着一种无限的纸片一个网络工具，和适当的导航系统。
The design will not fit on a single piece of paper and I would like a web tool with a sort of 'infinite' sheet of paper, and a proper navigation system.
这是越过我的脑海例如一个想法是使用谷歌地球KML图层绘制信息系统进行导航。我不知道，虽然这将是多么容易做一个类似Visio拖放谷歌地球内部的编辑器。
An idea that crossed my mind for example is to use KML layers on Google Earth to draw the information system and navigate it. I don't know though how easy it would be to do a Visio-like drag and drop editor inside Google Earth.
你有没有发现这样的工具？你是如何处理你的信息系统的鸟瞰视图？
Have you ever found such a tool? How do you handle bird's eye views of your information system?
感谢您的帮助，

推荐答案
这问题很接近我的心脏。我花了几年时间寻找可视化系统架构的完美方式。我可以涉及到的论文无限片的概念也是如此。
This question is very close to my heart. I spent years searching for a perfect way to visualize a system architecture. I can relate to a notion of 'infinite' sheet of paper as well.
我试图利用第二人生作为在其上描绘系统的无限表面。当你飞过来的区域，你会看到大图片 - 大结构重新presenting主要模块和基础设施连接它们。然后，您可以下降，走进结构看更多的低水平的设计元素。听起来很疯狂？相信我，它是。
I tried to utilize "Second Life" as an infinite surface on which to depict the system. As you fly over the area, you see the big picture - big structures representing the main modules and infrastructure connecting them. You can then descend and walk into the structure to see more low level design elements. Sounds crazy? Believe me, it was.
我也被写入其中的一个系统被重新被什么东西psented类似远程通过管道连接多个水塔$ P $我自己的可视化软件。我走的太远，但没有得到，甚至接近了满意的效果。
I was also writing my own visualization software where a system was represented by something remotely resembling water towers connected by multitude of pipes. I went too far but didn't get even close to satisfactory results.
幸运了吧，我碰到视图和超越的方式来前段时间的.这本书我固定。相反，一些神奇的互动解决方案的梦想，我现在已经在我手上了坚实和健全的做法。我根本无法推荐这本书高度不够。
As luck had it, I came across "Views and Beyond" approach some time ago http://www.amazon.com/Documenting-Software-Architectures-Views-Beyond/dp/0321552687/. This book fixed me. Instead of dreaming of some magical interactive solutions, I now have a solid and sound approach at my disposal. I simply cannot recommend this book highly enough.
