In my previous article, I highlighted the importance of state machine thinking in creating robust and dependable systems. Now, let's delve deeper into the mathematical underpinnings of converting ...

Finite State Machines (FSMs) serve as a foundational model for representing the behaviour of systems that transition between discrete states in response to inputs. Their applicability ranges from ...

The interest in state machines started in the 1950s when George Moore and Edward Mealy published seminal papers on formal methods of designing digital circuits, which generate outputs based on the ...

This installment starts a new segment of lessons about state machines. The subject conceptually continues the event-driven theme and is one of my favorites [1,2]. Today, you’ll learn what event-driven ...

This technical report proposes a formal semantics for EMV2 and shows how to leverage this semantics to generate fault trees from an AADL model enriched with EMV2 information.
