Graph rewriting systems — The basic concepts -- UBS-Graph rewriting systems — matching subgraphs in constant time -- Programmed attributed graph rewrite systems — An advanced modelling formalism -- The abstract machine for graph rewriting — supporting a fast implementation -- A graphical implementation of functional languages — a case study in UBS-graph rewriting systems -- Conclusions.

Sommario/riassunto

This book presents two major research results on the fast implementation of graph rewriting systems (GRS). First, it explores the class of so-called UBS-GRS, where the complexity of a rewriting step is linear instead of NP, showing for example that visual programming is possible by UBS graph rewriting. Second, an abstract machine for graph rewriting is defined providing an instruction set sufficient for the execution of GRS. The basic definitions of GRS in the algorithmic approach are introduced and extended by attribution and control structures to comprise a formalism for an operational specification. The



translation of a functional programming language to graph rewriting shows the capabilities of UBS-GRS.

Sommario/riassunto

Over the past decade, foreign direct investment (FDI) around the world has nearly tripled, and with this surge have come dramatic shifts in FDI flows. In Foreign Direct Investment, distinguished economists look at changes in FDI, including historical trends, specific country experiences, developments in the semiconductor industry, and variations in international mergers and acquisitions. Chapters cover such topics as theoretical accounts of FDI patterns, the growth of multinational enterprises, and the FDI experiences of Japan, the United States, and selected developing countries. This volume will interest economists, government officials, and business people concerned with FDI today.
