Abstract

Tile rewriting grammars are a new model for defining picture languages. In this paper we propose hexagonal tile rewriting grammars (HTRG) for generating hexagonal picture languages. Closure properties of HTRG are proved for some basic operations. We compare HTRG with hexagonal tiling systems.
