Abstract

The recent formalization of the semantics of Message Sequence Charts enables the derivation of tools for MSCs directly from this formal definition. We use the ASF+SDF meta-environment to make a straightforward implementation of tools for transformation, simulation and requirements testing. In this paper we present the complete specification of the tools.
