A. LINDENMAYER and K. CULIK II state that, when we plan to describe a system throughout an extended period of time: “… we have to introduce rules by which a new graph can be produced from a previous one. Using such a system of rules, one obtains either a sequence of graphs (in their order of development), or a set of graphs (without an ordering)…
- “A parallel graph rewriting system in our sense consists of a set of node labels, a set of production rules, a set of connection rules, and a starting graph” (1979, p.46).
This introduces transformation graphs.
