The generic term "graph-grammars" refers to a variety of methods for specifying (possibly infinite) sets of graphs or sets of maps. The area of graph-grammars originated in the late 60s motivated by considerations concerning pattern recognition - since then the list of areas which have interacted with the development of graph-grammars has grown ...
This handbook considers applications of graph grammars and computing by graph transformations to functional languages, visual and object-oriented languages, software engineering, mechanical engineering, chemical process engineering and images.
Since their introduction nearly 40 years ago, research on Petri nets has diverged in many different directions. Various classes of Petri net, motivated either by theory or applications, with its own specific features and methods of analysis, have been proposed and studies in depth. These successful developments have led to a very heterogeneous ...
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 6th International Workshop on Theory and Applications of Graph Transformations held in Paderborn, Germany, in November 1998. The 33 revised full papers presented in the book were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 55 papers presented at the meeting. The ...
The research area of graph grammars and graph transformations dates back only two decades. But already methods and results from the area of graph transformation have been applied in many fields of computer science, such as formal language theory, pattern recognition and generation, compiler construction, software engineering, concurrent and ...

This state-of-the-art survey in the Advances in Petri Nets series reports how various well-established and novel Petri net notions and techniques can be employed for modelling communication-based systems, with a particular focus on workflow management and business processes.The book builds on the success of a special program of the German Science ...
Graphs are widely used to represent structural information in the form of objects and connections between them. Graph transformation is the rule-based manipulation of graphs, an increasingly important concept in computer science and related fields. This is the first textbook treatment of the algebraic approach to graph transformation, based on ...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference on Graph Transformations, ICGT 2002, held in Barcelona, Spain in October 2002. The 26 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected by the program committe. Also included are abstracts of 3 invited papers, a tutorial, the extended abstract of ...
This book assesses the state of the art in some of the most active research areas in theoretical computer science. It presents research papers and survey articles written by leading researchers on the occasion of Grzegorz Rozenberg's 60th birthday. The topics covered range from basic decidability and the notion of information to graph grammars and ...
Two important new concepts, module specifications and constraints, are introduced in this second volume of a three-volume set on fundamentals of algebraic specification. These concepts are motivated by problems in practical software development and are studied here from a theoretical point of view. Modularization is one of the main structuring ...
The aim of this book is to present fundamentals of algebraicspecifications with respect to the following three aspects: fundamentals in the sense of a carefully motivatedintroduction to algebraic specifications, which is easy tounderstand for computer scientists and mathematicians; fundamentals in the sense of mathematical theories which arethe ...
The algebraic specification of abstract data types is now awell establishedresearch topic in computer science. Thisarea influences both applications and theoreticalfoundations of methodologies which support the design andformal development of reliable software. The Seventh Workshop on Specification of Abstract Data Typestook place in ...
