About this book

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Graph Transformations, ICGT 2008, held in Leicester, UK, in September 2008. The 27 revised full papers presented together with 5 tutorial and workshop papers and 3 invited lectures were carefully selected from 57 submissions. All current aspects in graph drawing are addressed including hypergraphs and termgraph rewriting, applications of graph transformation, execution of graph transformations, compositional systems, validation and verification, graph languages and special transformation concepts, as well as patterns and model transformations. In addition the volume contains 17 short papers of the ICGT 2008 Doctoral Symposium.
