Abstract: Morphic nets (MNs) are net-based diagrams that offer a model based design framework. MNs combine the inherent advantages of a net structure with concepts from programming languages to model morphic (or change in shape) of data as it happens. MN extensions are introduced with some design rules and MNs are compared with UML and Coats Mellon operational specifications formalisms.
Keywords: Coats Mellon specification formalism, UML, design diagrams, morphic nets.
