Features

This framework provides 4 central building blocks. Some of their features are:

Modeling

Dynamically create bigraph models at design and run-time. Compose bigraphs to build more complex bigraphs quickly. Bigraph models are based on the Ecore standard and conform to a meta-model.

Simulation and Verification

Create a bigraphical reactive system with agents and reaction rules to dynamically evolve a user-defined system. Perform model checking tasks by defining various kinds of predicates.

Interoperability

Export your bigraphs and bigraphical reactive systems as Ecore-based models or any other format such as GraphML, GXL, BigraphER, BigMC or BigRed.

Visualization

Display your bigraphs graphically and export them as PNG or SVG.
