Unlike in previous approaches, we consider graphs as objects, instead of arrows, of the category under consideration. This allows us to present a very simple way of deriving labelled transitions (called rewriting steps with borrowed context) which smoothly integrates with the DPO approach, has a very constructive natureand requires only a minimum of category theory. The core part of this paper is the proof sketch that the bisimilarity based on rewriting with borrowed contexts is a congruence relation.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBisimulation , Transitionssystem , Graphersetzungssystem004graph rewriting , graph transformation , bisimulation , transition systemsDeriving bisimulation congruences in the DPO approach to graph rewriting.
