Abstract
The invention provides a solution for transforming a flow graph model to a structured flow language model. In particular, the nodes in the flow graph model are traversed, and each node is mapped to an activity in the structured flow language model. When a node comprises a branch point, the corresponding branch region is identified and mapped. This process is repeated until all nodes in the flow graph model have been mapped to corresponding activities in the structured flow language model. In this manner, the desired nesting and containment relationships can be identified and generated in the structured flow language model.
