Beschreibung

This book contains a collection of 37 refereed full papers selected from the contributions presented at the 5th International Workshop on Graph Grammars and Their Applications to Computer Science, held in Williamsburg, Virginia, USA, in November 1994.
The book covers the whole spectrum of methods and techniques for the investigation of the structure of graphs and graph transformations. The papers are divided into nine topical sections on rewriting techniques, specification and semantics, software engineering, algorithms and architectures, concurrency, graph languages, pattern and graphics, structure and logic of graphs, and biology.
