Abstract

This paper details a partial order semantics for families of scenarios represented by High-Level Message Sequence Charts (HMSCs): graph grammars generating event structures are used to represent HMSCs. A decision procedure for HMSC equivalence is then described. This can be considered as a first step towards the formal manipulation of scenarios.
