This allows one to give not only an explicit algebraic or set theoretical description of the constructions but also to use concepts and results from category theory in order to build up a rich theory and to give elegant proofs even in complex situations. In the previous chapter we have presented an overview of the basic notions and problems common to the two algebraic approaches the double pushout DPO approach and the single pushout SPO approach and their solutions in the DPO approach. In this chapter we introduce the SPO approach to graph transformation and some of its main results. We study application conditions for graph productions and the transformation of more general structures than graphs in the SPO approach where similar generalizations have been or could be studied also in the DPO approach. Finally we present a detailed comparison of the DPO and the SPO approach especially concerning the solutions to the problems discussed for both approaches in the previous chapter.}},

  abstract     = {{The concept of views is used on two levels. First, so-called design views are developed for structuring specifications, that is, a system is modeled according to different views (e.g., representing the needs of different kinds of users) which have to be synchronized afterwards in order to build the whole system. Views can be specified by means of typed graph transformation systems, where the type graph determines the visible types and the productions describe the known operations of that view. The synchronization of views is done by the construction of cooperative parallel composition of graph transformation systems, developed by Leila Ribeiro and presented at the same seminar. If the specification is complete, a view may describe an observation of the system in operation. In this case we speak of a user view. It turns out that the semantics of such a view cannot be described by computations (i.e., graph transformations), but just by observations of computations of the global system. Such observations of computations cannot be represented by graph transformations in the usual sense because a local view may lack operations (productions) of the global system, so that state changes may be observed that do not have a cause in the local view. Therefore, the notion of graph transition is introduced as loose semantics for productions, where the production specifies only a lower bound to the activities that are to happen during application. Contrastingly, in the classical doublepushout approach to graph rewriting, productions are interpreted as complete descriptions of the transformations to be performed. For typed graph transformation systems a transition sequence semantics is developed, comprising all finite and infinite sequences of transitions in a system. Moreover, this semantics is shown to be compositional w.r.t. the synchronization of views.}},

In particular, feasibility, expressiveness, quality and the overall benefits of a formal SOCCA model are discussed and compared to the formerly existing informal process description. In order to illustrate the results, a well chosen process model fragment from the larger model is outlined in detail. It addresses in particular the human-intensive cooperation within the process and shows the seamless combination of technical components and human agent components in the SOCCA model. The main conclusions from this trial are that formal SOCCA models are suited to model realistic industrial processes and that due to an intrinsic modular structure of a SOCCA model, even huge models remain reasonably readable and understandable}},

  abstract     = {{In order to manage the complexity of large system specifications, they have to be decomposed into subspecifications. Each subspecification describes a certain part of the system. This might be a certain aspect, like the data, dynamic, or functional aspect, as it is known from object-oriented modelling techniques. Or it might be a certain view onto the system, as it is known from database modelling techniques. The talk motivates the usage of views in graph grammarbased specifications. First, the usage of typed graph grammars inherently ensures an integration of the data and the functional aspect within a view. Second, it is explained that it is not appropriate in case of views to have a fixed semantics. The standard fixed semantics, i.e. a graph transformation system, has to be relaxed to a loose semantics, i.e. a graph transition system. This reflects the idea that a view models only a part of the complete system. Other views may overlap a view with respect to data or functionality. A complete system specification is yielded by exploiting the approach of cooperative parallel composition of graph grammars (see talk by Leila Ribeiro).}},

In this paper we survey recent developments in applying graph transformation as a rule-based framework for the specification and development of systems, languages, and tools. After presenting the basic features of graph transformation, we discuss a spectrum of applications including the evaluation of functional expressions, the specification of an interactive graphical tool, an example specification for abstract data types, and the definition of a visual database query language. The case studies indicate the need for a graph transformation language that provides suitable structuring principles and is independent of a particular graph transformation approach. To this end, we sketch the basic features of the new graph- and rule-centered language Grace, currently under development, that permits systematic and structured specification and programming based on graph transformation.}},

The basic idea is to reuse concepts, which are known within or without the graph grammar field, to structure large specifications. These are the concept of distributed graph transformation systems, the concept of inheritance of specifications, and the import-export-interface concept. All these concepts are presented in a uniform framework based on the syntactical notion of a graph class specification and its semantics given by a graph transformation system. This is the basis for an explicit integration of these concepts and a corresponding specification language, to be discussed in a subsequent paper.}},
