The most widely used of these, GXL [6] is an XML based exchange format for graph like structures based on GraX (Graph eXchange format) [5], and RSF (Rigi Standard Format) 20] Software systems are represented as ordered, directed, attributed, and or typed graphs. While GXL is designed to be a standard exchange format for data that is derived from software, srcML is designed to represent the actual source code. Although srcML can be ....

XSLT and DOM are quite useful, but they cannot handle these operations directly. 6 Related Works . GraX [4] GraX is a graph based interchange format for exchanging software reengineering related data. The concrete notation for GraX is defined using XML as grax.dtd. The purpose of GraX is to o#er a general format for a wide variety of software objects. Thus, GraX does not o#er a specific format for ....

....choices From the beginning we decided to use XML [9] as an encoding for our exchange format. However, there were other important decisions to be made about our representation. 3.1. Trees vs. graphs One option for encoding ASGs in XML is to employ a general purpose graph encoding similar to GraX [2] and GxL [3] In such an encoding, the MethodCall fragment of the ASG in Figure 1 may be represented in XML as follows: Where decl is a reference to a method declaration node somewhere in the syntax tree whose id is 42. Alternatively, we can encode the tree directly, exploiting the fact that ....

These formats vary in the amount of support and use they receive. This proliferation of exchange formats underlines both the need for a standard format and the lack of consensus on one. For the first time, this workshop brought together members from ....

....graphs, acyclic graphs, trees, etc. or combinations of these. To support multiple program analysis techniques in one reverse engineering workbench, the underlying graph model has to be as rich as possible to cover most of the required graph models. Such a common graph model is given by TGraphs [9]. TGraphs are directed graphs, whose nodes and edges may be attributed and typed. Each type can be assigned an individual attribute schema specifying the possible attributes of nodes and edges. Furthermore, TGraphs are ordered, i.e. the node set, the edge set, and the sets of edges incident to a ....

....tools like ATerms [44] can easily be mapped on GXL. Being a structural description, graphs have no meaning of their own. The meaning of graphs corresponds to the context in which they are exchanged. This context is, in part, given by a schema (essentially an E R diagram or class diagram) [10]. In GXL, both the actual data representing the graph and the schema are passed as XML stream. Other information associated with the graph, such as user annotations or (x, y) locations for graph layout, is attached to the graph and passed in GXL as attributes. Although this paper concentrates on ....

Graph in figure 1 represented in XML (GXL document) The nodes (P, Q, V, and W) and edges (P, Q) P, V) and (Q, W) are represented along with their types and attributes. Figure 2 is an example of use of GXL. GXL is a slightly modified version of GraX [10], expanded for convenient representation of the information in TA streams as well as for representation of PROGRES graphs. More sophisticated features of GXL like schema references, composite attribute structures, edge identifiers, and edge ordering are not explained in this small example. For ....

.... of the subject domain of different tools there is evidence that data to be interchanged can not be mapped to a general metaschema [8] As a consequence a common interchange format enabling tool interoperability in software engineering has to support the exchange of instance data and schema data [3]. Here, the GraX (graph exchange) format [3] is proposed as an interchange format, which allows exchanging instance and schema data in the same way.
