Graph Transformation (GraTra) provides a formal, declarative means of
specifying model transformation. In practice, GraTra rule applications are
often programmed via an additional language with which the order of rule
applications can be suitably controlled.
Story-Driven Modelling (SDM) is a dialect of programmed GraTra, originally
developed as part of the Fujaba CASE tool suite. Using an intuitive,
UML-inspired visual syntax, SDM provides usual imperative control flow
constructs such as sequences, conditionals and loops that are fairly simple,
but whose interaction with individual GraTra rules is nonetheless non-trivial.
In this paper, we present the first results of our ongoing work towards
providing a formal step semantics for SDM, which focuses on the execution of an
SDM specification.Comment: In Proceedings GaM 2016, arXiv:1612.0105
