Abstract
Software engineering tools based on Graph Transformation techniques are becoming available, but their practical applicability is somewhat reduced by the lack of good idioms and design patterns related to these techniques. Idioms and design patterns provide prototypical solutions for recurring design problems in software engineering, but their use can be easily extended into the graph transformation systems. In this paper we briefly present a simple graph transformations language: GREAT, and show how typical design problems that arise in the context of model transformations can be solved using its constructs.
