State
Background Whitepaper
Nearly two decades ago David Harel invented state
charts as a way to describe complex event-driven systems. Since then,
state charts have gained acceptance as a useful modeling formalism and
been adopted as a component of many software modeling methodologies.
This document briefly looks at the advantages of state charts, some
challenges to implementing code directly from design and GLO's solution.

State
Engine Vs. State Charts - Example: Litterbot
A simple example to illustrate the advantages of using state
charts over simple state engines. Also used to illustrate the complex systems
that can be easily represented. Litterbot is a hypothetical, automated robot
for litter collection. StateLogics can of course be used to convert
this example into executable code.
