State Machines Keunhyuk Yeom Dept. of Computer Engineering Pusan National University [email protected] State Machines This lecture will describe how to model systems using State Machines State Machine Basics motivation, basic concepts, notation, simple examples State Machine Variations modeling complex systems, variables, actions, non-determinism Reasoning about State Machines invariants and constraints Statecharts a specific, popular graphical approach Two Types(or Models) of State Machines Moore machine Mealy machine Equivalence Test 2 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Why State Machines? Goal: provide simple abstractions of complex systems All computer systems are state machines registers and memory are state changes are transitions between states a program defines the way in which initial states are transformed into final states a programming language determines a set of programs (and hence, a set of machines) Primary challenge will be to represent these very complex machines with simpler (more abstract) machines that we can reason about 3 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University State Machines Are Used When it is possible to abstract away irrelevant details, leaving only a small number of states When we want to examine every possibility using model checking For communication protocols and complex distributed algorithms (e.g., cache coherency) 4 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Some Notes State machines are the modeling foundation for all of the other forms of modeling that we will be looking at (including Z, CSP, Temporal Logic, etc.) No standard notation, although the concepts are widely agreed upon Level of rigor will vary depending on needs and mood 5 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Informally... A state machine captures the idea that a system progresses through a set of states by performing (or responding to) a set of actions. Thus there are two key concepts States Actions A state machine definition must say what the possible states are what initial states the machine may start in what the possible actions are how the state changes when actions occur 6 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University What is a State? A snapshot of the system values of memory, registers Set of values for variables snapshot of running program's data Control location(s) snapshot of where a program is in its execution sequence(s) Contents of communication channels snapshot of a communication state 7 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University A (Very) Simple State Machine World's simplest (and most boring) state machine stop States: {stop} Actions: {} Initial state: {stop} 8 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Another Simple Example alarm beep States: {alarm} Actions: {beep} Initial state: {alarm} 9 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University A More Interesting Example key gas brake M1 off idle moving crashed States: {off, idle, moving, crashed} Actions: {key, gas, brake} Initial state: {off} 10 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University A Small Variation key gas brake M2 off idle moving crashed key One action may cause alternative transitions from the same state This is referred to as non-determinism Also note: machine now has a possibly infinite number of steps that it can take 11 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Formal Definition A state machine M is a 4-tuple (S, A, I, T) with S : is a finite or infinite set of states I S: is a finite set of initial states A : is a finite set of actions T : state transition “relation” over S x A x S When S is finite, M is a finite state machine Notes: T is often represented by the symbol (Greek Delta). T is sometimes written in the form S x A S, making it a true relation. 12 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Transitions (s1, a, s2) is in T when there is an arrow a from s1 to s2 labeled a s1 s2 T is a relation because of nondeterminism (two arrows from the same source and with the same label, to different targets) When T is a function we say M is a deterministic state machine Actions are sometimes called labels, actions, or state transitions A is sometimes called the alphabet of M 13 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Car Example (M1) S = { off, idle, moving, crashed } I = { off } A = { key, gas, brake } T = { (off, key, idle), (idle, gas, moving), (moving, brake, crashed) } Car == ( { off, idle, moving, crashed }, { off }, { key, gas, brake }, { (off, key, idle), (idle, gas, moving), (moving, brake, crashed) } ) 14 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Executions Each triple, (s,a,s') in T is called a step of M An execution is a finite or infinite sequence , where s0 is an initial state of M, and for all i, (si, ai+1, si+1 ) is in T (note must end in a state if finite and non-empty) Examples For a finite execution, the last state is called a final state of M (note: may be different elsewhere) A state is reachable if it is a final state of a finite execution 15 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Traces A (event-based or action-based) trace is the sequence of actions of an execution < key, gas, brake > A (state-based) trace is the sequence of states of an execution, or the sequence for each si I. < off, idle, moving, crashed> 16 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Behavior The behavior of a machine M, (Beh(M)), is the set of all traces of M. Event based: {, , , } {, , , , ,...> Note: a finite state machine can have infinite behavior 17 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Infinite State Machines In general, state machines may not have a finite numbers of states Example: integer counter inc inc inc 0 1 2 3 18 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Informally We want something like this: SimpleCounter == ( {0, 1, 2,...}, {0}, {inc}, {(0,inc,1), (1,inc,2), (2,inc,3),...} ) But "..." is not very precise Solution: you already know how 19 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Using Sets and Logic to Describe State Machines The set of states is easy: The transition for inc can be described by: Tinc == { (s,a,s'): x {inc} x s' = s + 1 } where Tinc is the part of T that deals with inc In general, we have T = Ta a A So, SimpleCounter == (, {0}, {inc}, { (s,a,s'): x {inc} x s' = s + 1 }) 20 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Interfaces and Environments What is the difference between these machines? tick push-A left right blue red tock push-B In general, a machine operates in an environment that can either observe an event or cause an event to occur. Sometimes it helps to distinguish between observed and initiated events, or input and output actions 21 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Scalability State can get huge for very simple systems Often need more compact representations Describe the set of states from which a transition appears through a predicate Describe the `target’ through the changes to the source Use text and not pictures Focus on specialized aspects (such as event traces) 22 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Unexpected Actions Consider the following machine push-A blue red push-B What happens if I push button B when the machine is in the blue state? Nothing happens It is undefined -- anything can happen It is an error It can't happen 23 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University The Story So Far State machine basics the state machine as 4-tuple graphical notation executions, behavior, traces finite and infinite state machines the problem of complexity & abstraction In the Next, we will talk about variables preconditions, postconditions input/output (arguments & results) exceptions nondeterminism FSAs 24 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Recall: Infinite State Machines In general, state machines may not have a finite numbers of states Example: integer counter inc inc inc inc 0 1 2 3 How can we write this state machine down? 25 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Variables We can use variables to "collapse" a large number of states First step is to consider a "state" as representing the values of some variables inc inc inc inc x=0 x=1 x=2 x=3 Represented as a single box we have: inc Counter x: Int 26 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Multiple Variables More generally, each state can be characterized in terms of the values that a set of variables take inc-x inc-x inc-x x=0 x=1 x=2 y=0 y=0 y=0 inc-y x=0 y=1 inc-y inc-x inc-y Counter x: Int y: Int 27 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University State Space as a Function Space We can model each state as a function. Example For the machine below one possible state might be: { (x 3), (y 5) } note this is a function Suppose after some operations the state changes to: { (x 4), (y 8) } still a function, but a different one from below So the state space is the set of all functions, and any individual state is one of those functions. inc-x inc-y Counter2 x: Int y: Int 28 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University More Formally For certain state machines we take the 4- tuple to be M = ( {S: Var Val}, I, A, T ) That is, the state is a (partial) function from variables to values In practice, Var will be finite, although Val may be infinite We will also insist that variables be typed For the counter examples S = { {x} } and S = { {x,y} } What about the transition relation? { (s,a,s'): S x {inc} x Ss'(x) = s(x) + 1 } 29 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University EvenCounter bump bump bump x=0 x=2 x=4 x=1 x=3 bump EvenCounter x: Int 30 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University EvenCounter Set of states for EvenCounter is same as for Counter Transition function { (s,a,s'): S x {bump} x S even(s(x)) s'(x) = s(x) + 2 } This kind of specification is accurate, but unwieldy 31 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Alternative Notation Counter header inc pre true precondition post x' = x + 1 postcondition EvenCounter bump pre even(x) post x' = x + 2 32 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Pre- and Post-Conditions Meaning is that a transition cannot occur unless the precondition is satisfied, and then the final state value (s') will be related to the initial state value (s) as defined by the postcondition. We will use x and x', to stand for s(x) and s'(x), respectively. a S s s' pre(s) is true post(s,s') is true 33 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Arguments Suppose want to give inc an argument inc1 x=1 inc1 x=0 inc2 x=2 x=3 inc3 inc(i:Z) BigCounter 34 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Using Pre-Post Notation One possibility inc (i: ) pre true post x' = x + i Another possibility (FatCounter) inc (i: ) pre i > 0 post x' = x + i 35 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Output How can we handle output? Ans: add more structure to actions Specifically: an action becomes a pair (invocation event, response event) We will also take this opportunity to distinguish between normal and error output values 36 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Example: Register write(1) / ok() read() / ok(1) x=1 x=0 write(2) / ok() x=2 read() / ok(0) write(2) / ok() read() / ok(2) read() / ok(Z) write(i:) / ok() Register 37 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Exceptions We can extend our notation to allow for exceptional (or error) results Example: pop()/ok(Z), empty() 38 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Nondeterminism Thus far the transition relation has been a function But we can allow for flexibility using a relation (recall: nondeterminism) Example: inc(4) x=7 x=3 inc(4) x = 11 inc(i:int) pre i > 0 post x' = x + i x' = x + 2i 39 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Finite State Automata FSA = {S, I, F, A, T) S, I, A, T are as before except I must be a singleton set F is the set of final states Notational relationship FSA State Machine alphabet actions string trace (ending in final state) language L(M) behavior Beh(M) 40 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Basic Features of Statecharts State Boxes with rounded corners Transition Arc event[condition] / action1; action2 e[c] : the condition c is tested at the instant the event e occurs [c] : the condition c is tested at each instant of time when the system is in the transition’s source state STATE_A STATE_B event[condition] /action1; action2 41 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Statecharts vs. STD 42 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University The Hierarchy of States Clustering, multi-level, default (entrance) state Structuring for managing and understanding U G/A S T F Priority Higher-level transitions G/A S E Refer state name F Basically state_name Same child state name and different parent state name parent_state.child_state 43 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Orthogonality And-state and event broadcasting Defined event in the higher level state U W G Y S X E F E F[in(Y)] T F/E Z Conditions and events related to states en(S) The moment of entrance of state S : event ex(S) The moment of exiting of state S : event in(S) In state S : condition 44 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Branching Connectors Condition Connectors Branch by condition Switch Connectors Branch by event 45 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Compacting Connectors Junction Connectors Branch/join (within one step) Attention to use (confusing to understand) E1 and E2 S3 S1 S3 S1 E1/A1 /A1 E1 and E3 E2 E3/A2 /A1;A2 S2 S2 46 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University More about Transitions Fork/Join construct with AND-state Similar to Junction connectors 47 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Event and Condition Expressions Event expression event1 {and/or} event2 not event (Not recommend) event[condition] all(event_array), any(event_array) E[C] event_array is a event array Condition expression [exp1 {= | # | > | < | = } exp2] e.g [ 4 > x] [all(cond_array)], [any(cond_array)] cond_array is a condition array 48 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Time Related Expression Introducing timing information into a statechart Timeout event tm(E,T) E : event, T : integer expression event will occur T time units after the latest occurrence of the E e.g. tm(en(A_STATE), 10) Scheduled actions sc!(G,T) G : action, T : integer expression G is performed T time units from the present instant e.g. sc!(if NO_SIGNAL then ISSUE_DISCONNECTED_MSG, 3) 49 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University State Machine Describe the Behavior of System Basic Elements s s’ States Transition between States Types Basic Type: Moore Machine, Mealy Machine Extended Type: State Diagram, RSML(Requirement Statement Machine Language), etc. Checking Methods Equivalence Test (동치 검사) Model Checking (모델 검사) 50 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Moore Machine (1/3) Outputs are printed when we reach a state, that is, the outputs depends on the present state Moore machine M = (I, O, S, d, , ) I : Set of Input O : Set of Output S : Set of States dS : initial(default) State : S I S : Transition Function, that is, (s,i) = s’ : S O : Output Function, that is, (s) = o 51 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Moore Machine (2/3) Example: M = (I, O, S, d, , ) I = {a,b} O = {x,y} S = {0,1,2} d=0 is defined as follows: (0,a) = 1 (0,b) = 0 (1,a) = 2 (1,b) = 1 (2,a) = 2 (2,b) = 0 is defined as follows: (0) = x (1) = y (2) = y 52 Computer Engineering, Pusan National University Moore Machine (3/3) State Transition Table State Transition Diagram For given input abbaaa, What is the output of this machine ?
