Abstract

Graph rewrite systems are often build to only transform graphs that are expressed using their internal graph modelling language. This prevents the use of the advanced techniques in graph rewriting on graphs or models that are not expressed in a way that the tool is able to understand. In this paper we present our approach to model migration for graph rewrite systems, that is, adaptation of graphs from external tools to the graph rewrite system’s internal model. We exemplify our ideas by a prototypical implementation for Fujaba4Eclipse.
