Hoare logic for graph programs

We present a new approach for verifying programs written in GP (for Graph Programs), an experimental programming language for performing computations on graphs at a high level of abstraction. Taking a labelled graph as input, a graph program nondeterministically applies to it a number of graph trans...

Hoare logic for graph programs
description We present a new approach for verifying programs written in GP (for Graph Programs), an experimental programming language for performing computations on graphs at a high level of abstraction. Taking a labelled graph as input, a graph program nondeterministically applies to it a number of graph transformation rules, directed by simple control constructs such as sequential composition and as-long-as-possible iteration. We adapt classical Hoare logic to the domain of graphs, and describe a system of sound proof rules for showing the partial correctness of graph programs.
