Giving some examples we outline common aspects for modeling complex structures by graphs. We present a formal frame-work based on graph grammars to specify graph classes and the corresponding graph manipulations. We show that such a specification can be written in a systematic, engineering-like manner. This is achieved by an extension of the known programmed, attributed graph grammars. Node-set operators are introduced to facilitate graph queries. Concepts like abstraction, decomposition, refinement, parameterization, and integration have been adopted from software engineering to yield a comprehensive specification method. This method has successfully been applied to specify the central data structures in a software development environment project","lang":"eng"}],"publisher":"Springer","user_id":"52534","page":"186-201","date_created":"2019-03-04T11:52:06Z","department":[{"_id":"66"}],"intvolume":" 291","citation":{"apa":"Engels, G., Lewerentz, C., & Schäfer, W.
