Story Diagrams<\/a> were presented by T. Fischer, J. Niere, L. Torunski and A. Z\u00fcndorf in 1998. Story Diagrams<\/em> combine UML Activity Diagrams<\/em> with graph transformations. This allows to easily express pattern matching operations on the object graph of an application. Fujaba<\/a> was the first CASE tool which supported so-called Story-Driven Modeling (SDM)<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The SDM Tools<\/em> provide a graphical editor for Story Diagrams<\/em> as well as a model validation and an interpreter to execute Story Diagrams<\/em> in Eclipse. Due to interpretation, Story Diagrams<\/em> can be executed directly without prior code generation. This provides a higher flexibility. Story Diagrams<\/em> can be generated at runtime and executed right away. In addition, we provide a visual debugger for Story Diagrams<\/em>. Besides common debugging features, like state inspection and breakpoints, it also allows to modify the Story Diagram<\/em> and its data, as well as step-back during debugging and undo side-effects.<\/p>\n

The SDM Tools<\/em> can be downloaded from our Eclipse update site: http:\/\/www.mdelab.de\/update-site<\/a>.<\/p>\n
