Analyzing Robustness of UML State Machines

State Machines constitute an integral part of software behavior specification within the UML. The development of realistic software applications often results in complex and distributed models. Potential errors can be very subtle and hard to locate for the developer. Thus, we present a set of robustness rules that seek to avoid common types of errors by ruling out certain modeling constructs. Furthermore, adherence to these rules can improve model readability and maintainability. The robustness rules constitute a general Statechart style guide for different dialects, such as UML State Machines, Statemate, and Esterel Studio.
