Abstract

The XL (eXtended L-System) programming language is an extension of the Java programming language by parallel rule-based graph rewriting features [10]. XL is primarily used in functional structural plant modelling where L(Lindenmayer)- systems [13,16] are used. Other main L-system implementations used in plant modelling are cpfg [15,8], lpfg [9], L-Py [1] and GROGRA [12]. The relational growth grammar (RGG) formalism [10] implemented by XL provides a connection mechanism emulating L-System string re-writing on graphs. An extension of such a rewriting formalism to multiscale structures is interesting in various domains from systems biology [14] to simulations of crop plants competing for resources [2].
