Transformation dependency analysis - A comparison of two approaches
Tom Mens, Günter Kniesel, Olga Runge · 2006
Transformation dependency analysis is crucial to provide better tool support for current-day software development techniques – two prominent examples are program refactoring and model transformation. Unfortunately, it is unclear how existing tools that provide generic support for these techniques relate to each other, due to their difference in terminology, concepts and formal foundations (graphs versus logic). This article reports on the results of an experimental comparison between two tools: AGG and Condor. Among others, we noticed a performance advantage of several orders of magnitude for the logic-based approach.
