| Abstract | Graphs are one of the most popular non linear data structures used to represent various data objects. These graphical structures can further be classified into directed and undirected graph representations. For modeling purpose, UML has adopted the phenomenon of directed graphical structures as statechart diagrams, to exhibit dynamic specification of any software or non software system. These diagrams are important as they are used to represent all possible values that an object can retain throughout its life cycle. Three key components are required to change the state of any object namely transition function, action and possible inputs. Statechart diagrams are also useful to determine all possible paths that an object will undergo during its entire life span, while changing its state. Further these paths can be represented with the help of various established graphical modeling techniques like Finite State Automata. The mapping and further analysis of these path structures can be very helpful in determining the correctness of the diagram as well as to highlight the possible deficiencies in the diagram. In the present work, authors have proposed semantics for automatic transformation of UML statechart diagram into its equivalent finite state automata, by taking the advantage of both of the models. Authors have also presented an approach to generate regular grammar for the generated finite state automata. This equivalent grammar can further be useful to generate various test cases, to test UML statechart diagram, against various test conditions. To better illustrate, authors have also presented a case study of an ATM machine and demonstrated that how this approach is helpful to verify the correctness of design |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
