Graph Transformation Systems

Graph Grammars have recently become more and more popular as a general formal modeling language. Behavioral modeling of dynamic systems and model to model transformations are a few well-known examples in which graphs have proven their usefulness in software engineering. A special type of graph transformation systems is layered graphs. Layered graphs are a suitable formalism for modeling hierarchical systems. However, most of the research so far concentrated on graph transformation systems as a modeling means, without considering the need for suitable analysis tools. In this paper we concentrate on how to analyze these models. We will describe our approach to show how one can verify the designed graph transformation systems. To verify graph transformation systems we use a novel approach: using Bogor model checker to verify graph transformation systems. The AGG-like graph transformation systems are translated to BIR — the input language of Bogor — and Bogor verifies that model against some properties defined by combining LTL and special purpose graph rules. Supporting schema-based and layered graphs characterize our approach among existing solutions for verification of graph transformation systems.

Graph Transformation Systems

For the generic specification of protocols, goals, or workflows, many approaches to agent-oriented modeling provide a concept of role. Roles abstract from the concrete agents involved in an interaction. They provide means for the evolution of agents and serve as components of agent design. Despite the widespread usage of roles in agent-oriented modeling, a systematic analysis of the different aspects and properties of this concept is still missing. In this paper, we perform such an analysis and identify requirements for a general role concept. We develop such a role concept for a modeling approach based on the UML and graph transformation systems and exemplify its use for the specification (and application) of protocols. Finally, we provide a run-time semantics for roles based on concepts from the theory of graph transformation.
