| Abstract / Kurzbeschreibung: |
Motivated by applications that require mechanisms for describing the
structure of object-oriented programs, adaptive star grammars are
introduced, and their fundamental properties are studied. In adaptive star
grammars, rules are actually schemata which, via the cloning of so-called
multiple nodes, may adapt to potentially infinitely many contexts when they
are applied. This mechanism makes adaptive star grammars more powerful than
context-free graph grammars. Nevertheless, they turn out to be restricted
enough to share some of the basic characteristics of context-free devices.
In particular, the underlying substitution operator enjoys associativity and
confluence properties quite similar to those of context-free graph grammars,
and the membership problem for adaptive star grammars is decidable.
