Abstract

In spite of its wide application in hardware design, the state machine concept is still not well understood or interpreted in the software domain. Misunderstandings have produced several stories and half-truths, and the concept has been reinvented several times - perhaps unintentionally - for software. We attempt to put the concept of a state machine in a proper perspective and show how the VFSM concept and its practical implementation StateWORKS realise the original, classic definition of a state machine. In addition, we show how StateWORKS realises a system of state machines.
