|
|
expressive language based on a transition table with as little syntactic noise as
|
|
possible, all this while offering as many features from the UML 2.0 standard as
|
|
possible. MSM also offers several expressive state machine definition syntaxes with
|
|
different trade-offs.</p></div><div class="navfooter"><hr><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="pt01.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="pt01.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="ch02.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">Part I.
