Case Study Descriptions
The contest consists of an offline and an online part. Solutions for the offline contest are prepared in advance and will be reviewed by our
case committee. Solutions for the online (live) contest will be created in a controlled environment,
during the GraBaTs workshop. Obviously, the description of the live case study is not available before the
live tool contest!
2009 Case Studies
On April 15, 2009, the case committee selected three case studies out of seven submitted ones:
All those who like to participate in the contest are asked to choose
one or more case studies, take their favourite graph transformation
tool and submit their solutions. A submission should consist of a
paper and the actual solution. The paper should include a description
of the chosen case study variant (if any) and a presentation of the
chosen solution, including a discussion of design decisions. See
the
2008 solutions page for
examples. Each case study solution (tool, project files,
documentation) should be made available for review and demonstration
via the
GraBaTs09 SHARE system.
(see the
SHARE documentation pages for
instructions).
Papers should be formatted according to Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) format and are to be submitted by May 22, 2009, to EasyChair.
Depending on the number of submissions, a selection will be made of
solutions to be presented; the other submissions will get a chance for
a (non-plenary) tool demo at the end of the workshop. See the program page for a tentative workshop schedule.

Participate
Feel free to participate to all parts of the contest. It will enable you to compare your tool against all other competing tools! Remember:
tool
improvement is what we seek, and this challenge is a means to achieve it. To paraphrase a famous saying:
'Tis
better to have competed and lost,
Than never to have competed at all.
