Abstract

The concept of Chomsky-grammar is generalized to multi-dimensional arrangement of symbols using multi-graphs the vertices and edges of which are labelled. The question arises in what cases productions preserve partial ordering. Vie give a necessary and sufficient condition for this. Furthermore, it is shown that context-free string grammars are a special case, but this is not true for context-sensitive grammars. Context-sensitive grammars in our definition are related to scattered context grammars.
