Attributed conditional L-systems: a tool for image description

The problem addressed in this work is the construction of a description of a digital image using a kind of parallel rewriting system, the conditional attributed L-system. To this end, descriptions of digital images and digital structures are first defined. Then, attributed conditional L-systems capable of parallel rewriting are introduced. These systems are concise and readable, and their suitability for image description is shown by an example. Advantages and disadvantages of their use are discussed
