A method of graphically mapping actions to actors may include displaying a first UI element containing system diagram representative of a system diagram and a second UI element containing a list of contextually related actions through a user interface; operating branch creation logic, in response to receiving a first selection input through the user interface; operating branch merge logic, in response to receiving a subsequent selection input through the user interface; rendering a chart element from an action/outcome text node branch, in a third window of the user interface through operation of the graphics processor; and/or linking at least two chart elements in the third window based, in part, on hierarchical ranking of the associated ranked action/outcome text node branches through operation of the graphics processor.
