Abstract

Linear-ordered graph grammars (LOGGs) are a special kind of graph grammars that were inspired by the general definitions of graph grammars and by tile systems. In this paper we show that this kind of grammar is particularly suited for the specification of distributed systems. Moreover, we discuss a simple extension of LOGGs inspired by the representation using tiles, leading to a notion of open graphs that can be very useful in a wider range of applications.
