Abstract: | Algebra replacement systems are introduced as formal models of state dependent and state transforming systems. The first part of an institution of algebra replacement systems is developed, that is, a model theoretic and logical framework that can be used to describe and reason about such systems. The usual operational understanding of a replacement system as a labeled transition system is then considered as one particular model in the model category. Under appropriate conditions such a constructed replacement system is initial. |
