Using XSLT to Detect Cycles in a Directed Graph

Overview This paper describes the most difficult stage of a multi-stage process in which a model of a business process is converted from a legacy system to a format digestible by IBM's WebSphere Business Integration Modeler. The stage where cycles must be detected in a directed graph was initially suspected to be beyond the abilities of generic XSLT, which was the tool of choice for the preceding and following stages. The paper describes a well-known algorithm for detecting cycles and then discusses how it can be implemented in XSLT, followed by some observations about the implementation.
