Generation of Sierpinski Triangles: A Case Study for Graph Transformation Tools

  • Conference paper
Applications of Graph Transformations with Industrial Relevance (AGTIVE 2007)

Abstract

In this paper, we consider a large variety of solutions for the generation of Sierpinski triangles, one of the case studies for the AGTIVE graph transformation tool contest [15]. A Sierpinski triangle shows a well-known fractal structure. This case study is mostly a performance benchmark, involving the construction of all triangles up to a certain number of iterations. Both time and space performance are involved. The transformation rules themselves are quite simple.
