Reactive graphs in action

Reactive graphs are transition structures whereas edges become active and inactive during its evolution, that were introduced by Dov Gabbay from a mathematical’s perspective. This paper presents Marge (https://fm-dcc.github.io/MARGe), a web-based tool to visualise and analyse reactive graphs enriched with labels. Marge animates the operational semantics of reactive graphs and offers different graphical views to provide insights over concrete systems. We motivate the applicability of reactive graphs for adaptive systems and for featured transition systems, using Marge to tighten the gap between the existing theoretical models and their usage to analyse concrete systems.
