I have a table in a database named "Process"
This process table has 3 fields:
process_id
process_name
process_parent_id
Now I want to display this parent child hierarchy in Graphical format. So could you please suggest me the following:

Q2. How to display that tree (process hierarchy) in graphical format?
EDIT:
I want the graphical format something like this:

Swing has a built-in control for displaying data in a Tree format called JTree. It also provides a data model called DefaultTreeModel which you can use to store the data. This link gives a pretty good explanation of using a JTree with a data model.
[Edit]:
To answer your updated question, a graph like that could quite well be handled by JGraph which would also provide the data model which seems to work similarly to the Tree model swing provides.
