From Graph Transformation to Software Engineering and Back

Software engineers usually represent problems and solutions aph-based notations at different levels of abstractions. These notations are often semi-formal, but the use of graph transformation techniques can support reasoning about graphs in many ways, and thus can largely enhance them. Recent work indicates many applications of graph transformation to software engineering and opens new research directions. This paper aims primarily at illustrating how graph transformation can help software engineers, but it also discusses how software engineering can ameliorate the practical application of graph transformation technology and its supporting tools.
