Abstract:
1. A state transition management device comprising: a first terminal receiving a first signal based on a current state-number; a memory which stores a state transition rule and from which a plurality of subsequent state-number candidates are read out in accordance with the first signal; a plurality of first nodes revealing the plurality of subsequent state-number candidates; a second terminal receiving a second signal based on the current state-number; a selection method specifying unit which outputs a selection method specifying signal in accordance with the second signal; a second node revealing the selection method specifying signal; an event terminal receiving a event-signal based on an event; a third terminal receiving a third signal based on the current state-number; a selection circuit which selects a subsequent state-number from the plurality of subsequent number candidates in accordance with the event-signal and the third signal; and an output terminal revealing a output signal based on the subsequent state-number.
