Ill ISOilEC 11 41 1 : 1995(E) Introduction Software in some fields can be represented by state transition diagrams and tables. The software changes its states through tra

9、nsitions. When a certain condition arises, the corresponding transition from state to state is performed. Conditions are brought about by input of data. The data may take various forms, e.9.: - signals, - commands, - messages: -tokens, flags, - characters, words, - records, etc. This International S

10、tandard describes minimum set of concepts and symbols for human communication of state transition of software. This International Standard a) defines the nature of state transitions of software; b) defines the notation of state transition elements; c) specifies a set of state transition elements. iV

11、 INTERNATIONAL STANDARD 0 lso/lEC ISO/IEC 11 41 1 : 1995(E) Information technology - Representation for human communication of state transition of software I Scope The underlying concept of this International Standard is that diagrams and symbols defined herein can be helpful in representing softwar

12、e functions and transitions and in improving human communication. The areas covered by this International Standard are development, communication and review of software requirement analysis and design. This International Standard is effective in the following fields of software. Interactive software

13、 -To describe the representation of functions and transitions on screens. Data communication software -To describe communication protocols and corresponding actions. -To describe the syntax. Lang uag eico m mand 2 Definitions For the purposes of this International Standard, the following definitions

14、 a p p I y . 2.1 state : A state is the unique value that represents the stage of progress of software in its execution. The state shall have a unique name as its identifier which is called state name. 2.2 transition : A transition is a change from one state to another state or the same state. A tra

15、nsition takes place when a condition is satisfied. An action may take place along with the transition. Formally, a transition consists of three parts: - direction part; - condition part; - action part. The direction part in turn consists of two state identifiers: - previous state identifier, pointin

16、g to the previous stale; - next state identifier, pointing to the next state. The condition part expresses the condition that must be satisfied for the action to take place and the change from one state to another. If mote transitions are defined to change from one state to another state or the same

17、 state, they shall be mutually exclusive, The action part represents the action which is performed by the software according to the condition. The action may be any processing or may be nil. 3 Specification 3.1 Specification of state States are a) Initial state Oneand only one state is initial. In t

18、he initial state, the software starts its activity. The initial state must be the previous state of at least one transition. b) Final state One or more states can be the final state. In final states the software terminates its activity. Each final state must be the next state of at least one transit

19、ion. c) lnitialifinal state The initial state can be the final state. In this case, the software terminates its activity and the activity may or may not be immediately restarted. The initial/final state must be the previous state of at least one transition and the next state of at least one transiti

20、on. d) Intermediate state A state that is not initial, not final, and not initial/final is called an intermediate state. It must be the next state of at east one transitjon from another state and the previous state of at least one transition to another state. lSO/IEC 11 41 1 : 1995(E) 0 ISOilEC 3.2

21、Specification of transition Transitions are a) Transition to another state This transition indicates the change from one state to another state. The previous state and the next state identifiers in the direction part of such a transition designate different states. b) Transition to the same state Th

22、is transition indicates the change from one state back IO the same state. The previous state and the next state identifiers in the direction part of such a transition designate the same state. a.3 Usage of state and transition Description of the state transition of software shall obey the following

23、conditions at the same time. 4 4. 4. a) One and only one initial state exists. b) Zero or more final state(s) exist(s). c) One or more transition(s) exist(s). d) A previous state and a next state in each transition exists. State diagram 1 Concept 1.1 Diagram In the state diagram, state and transitio

24、n are presented by symbols and texts. The state diagram represents permissible or defined changes of state. 4.1.2 Symbols 4.1.2.1 State A state is presented by a circle and text. A State b) Final state The charting notation of the final state IS as follows. n 0 name or (+. c) Initial/final state The

25、 initial state can be the final state at the same time. In this case, the charting notation of the state is as follows. 6 State or A State d) Intermediate state The charting notation of an intermediate state is as fo I lows. c State 4.1.2.2 Transition Transition Is presented by an arrow and text. Th

26、e text includes condition part and action part. There should be a clear delimiter between condition part and action part, e.g. slash or horizontal line. a) Transition to another state The charting notation for a transition from one state to another is as follows. a) Initial state The charting notati

27、on of the initial state is as follows. 2 ISO/IEC 1141 I : 1995(E) 0 ISO/IEC 5 State table b) Final state The charting notation of afinal state is as follows. 5.1 Concept 5.1.1 Diagram State transition may be also represented by a table. States and conditions will be represented in rows and columns.

28、Transitions are at the corresponding intersections. State No. I II In state table, a state has a state No. as an additional identifier of state. The state No. is a unjque number such as serial number of state. c) 1nitial:final state The initial state can be the final state at the same time. In this

29、case, the charting notation of the state is as follows. - 5.1.2 Symbols I Initial/ final I 5.1.2.1 State St at e a) Initial state The charting notation of an initial state is as follows. Initial Condition d) Intermediate state The charting notation of this state is as follows. I State name I,* -,I*

30、NOTE- In clause 5, the ellipsis (three dots) is used to show general solutions with an open number of repetition of symbols or a set of symbols as fotlows. 5.1 -2.2 Transition Transition is presented by an intersection. Action part and next slate number are described in the intersection. 4 0 ISOilEC

31、 lSO/IEC 11 41 1 : 1995(E) a) Transition to another state The charting notation for a transition from one state to another is as follows. a) Use of the state name as the next state identifier When it is easy to find astate in astate table using state name, state name may be used instead of state No.

32、 as the next state identifier in the intersection. In this case, the state No. part defined in 5.1 .2.1 can be omitted. State name b) Omission of an action part in a transition The action part in the transition may be left blank when there is no action executing with the transition or it is not nece

Action part state No. 5.3.1 Drawing Both hand-dram symbols and machine-drawn symbols are the same as those specified in 5.1.2. 5.3.2 Forms The state No. and the next state No. designate different states. Positions of state

34、 and condition are interchangeable, and this International Standard does not require a specific form sheet. b) Transition to the same state In case of transition to the same state, the next state No. is the same as the original state No. on d it i on m- . 5.2 Conventions Diagraming conventions : The
