Abstract: A software tool has been designed and developed for workstation applications. It is a library of functions based on a graph formalism, and consists of graph manipulation functions and visualization functions. It provides for a standard graph editor and performs animation of changing graph data. The authors describe the characteristics of this tool and illustrate an extended Petri net simulator and a prototype robot system as its applications. In the prototype robot system, the graph editor is used for robot data input and the formalized graph data structure is used for data manipulation.
Keywords: graph-based visual tool (for) workstation(s); graph manipulation function; graph editor; extended net simulator; prototype robot system.
