  1. Introduction toGraph Grammars Fulvio D’Antonio LEKS, IASI-CNR Rome, 14-10-03

  2. Summary • Basic concepts • Double pushout approach • Single pushout approach • Tools • References

  3. Graph grammars Graph grammars has been invented (in early seventies) in order to generalize (Chomsky) string grammars. The main idea was that of extending concatenation of strings to a “gluing” of graphs Algebraic approaches were developed at the Technical University of Berlin The action of gluing two graphs is a construction, in the category of graphs and graph morphisms, called pushout

  4. Graph grammars: definition • A graph grammar is a pair: GG = (G0,P) G0 is called the starting graph and P is a set of production rules L(GG) is the set of graphs that can be derived starting with G0 and applying the rules in P

  5. A graph…

  6. Definition A pair (V,E) of finite sets : E  V  V E is a set of ordered pairs of vertexes. Graphically we represent an edge (v1,v2) with an arrow starting in v1 and ending in v2

  7. Another graph … This is a multigraph

  8. Another definition • A pair (V,E) where V is a finite set, E is a finite multiset with elements in VV E.g. V= v1,v2,…., vn E = (v1,v2),….,(v1,v2),…

  9. A A Yet another graph … a b This is a labelled multigraph: elements without a label are considered labelled with the null symbol 

  10. Yet another definition A pair (V,E) where: V is a finite set of pairs and E is a finite set of triples. Too complicated!

  11. A more elegant definition (algebraic style) • A graph is a tuple (V,E,s,t,lV,lE): V and E are two finite sets (VE=) s,t : E  V are two mappings indicating the source and the target of an edge lV: V V e lE: E E are two mappings from from V and E in two finite sets of labels

  12. B Example E A B A Notes: The edges are directed Two vertexes with the same label Multiple edges (even with the same label!) between two vertexes

  13. Example 2:Pacman graph (PG)

  14. Graph morphism: informally speaking • Given two graphs G and G’ we want to know if G’ “contains” G. We can try to draw a correspondence between every vertex (edge) of G and a vertex (edge) of G’ This correspondence is a graph morphism (if it respects some properties!)

  15. B Example: G is contained in G’ G’ G E A 3 3 A 2 B 2 A B A 1 1 This is a correct graph morphism

  16. B Example 2 G’ G E 3 A 3 2 2 B A B A 1 1 This is not a correct graph morphism

  17. B Example 3 G’ G E E 2,4 4 A E 3 2 1,3 B A 1 This is a correct non-injective graph morphism

  18. Graph morphism Given G =(V,E,s,t,lV,lE) and G’=(V’,E’,s’,t’,lV’,lE’) a graph morphism is a pair (1,2), 1:V  V’, 2: E  E’ such as: 1)labels are preserved i.e. lV(vi) = lV’(1(vi)) etc. 2)incidence is preserved i.e. 1(s(ei)) = s’(2(ei))) etc.

  19. What is a pushout?(Very very informal) • “Gluing” of two objects along a common substructure

  20. Summary • Basic concepts • Double pushout approach • Single pushout approach • Tools • References

  21. Graph grammars:Double pushout approach The format of a production rule is: p : L l K r R • L,K,R are graphs and l,r are two (total) morphisms matching K, respectively,in L and R

  22. Example • movePacman : L R K

  23. Derivation • Given: a graph G,a production p:L l K r R and a graph morphism :L  G 1)The context graph is obtained “deleting” from G all elements images of elements in L but not of elements in K (pushout complement) 2)The final graph is obtained “adding” to context graph all elements which don’t have a pre-image in K(pushout)

  24. L R K Example • movePacman : The match The graph G

  25. The match The context graph

  26. The match The final graph H G  ,p H G * ,p Gn (reflexive symmetric and transitive closure)

  27. Other rules in Pacman game MoveGhost: Kill:

  28. Summary • Basic concepts • Double pushout approach • Single pushout approach • Tools • References

  29. Single pushout approach The format of a production rule is: p : L r R r is a partial graph morphism A single derivation step is modelled by a single-pushout diagram

  30. Example 1 1 r 3 3 4 2 4 2 L R r is a partial morphism

  31. Difference between the two approaches • Double-pushout approach requires two further conditions for a step derivation (dangling and identification condition) • Single-pushout doesn’t requires such conditions • Single pushout rules can model more situations than double pushout rules

  32. Summary • Basic concepts • Double pushout approach • Single pushout approach • Tools • References

  33. Progres • PROGRES is an integrated environment for a very high level programming language which has a formally defined semantics based on "PROgrammed Graph REwriting Systems" Agg AGG is a rule based visual language supporting single pushout approach to graph transformation. It aims at the specification and prototypical implementation of applications with complex graph-structured data.
