Severity: Minor
Summary: No mention of figures 387 and 390 are made in the text. Reference figure 387 on pages 600 (Composite state) and page 606 (Entering an orthogonal composite state). Reference figure 390 at end of paragraph 2 on page 613. Typos - In sentence under Exiting an orthogonal state, change "is" in last sentence to "are." - Under Composite state (pg 609) Upper case Decomposition compartment. - Page 606, Under Exiting non-orthogonal state, change "from a composite state..." to "from a simple composite state..." to agree with the line just above Simple state in sub-section Description on page 600. - Page 606, first paragraph, change "il defined" to "ill defined." - Page 612, under Examples, change "sub state machine" to "submachine state." - Page 614, first line, change "In Figure 391 this state machine" to "In Figure 391 the state machine of figure 389 an figure 390." - Page 614, first line of Rational change "Submachine states...has been..." to "State machines...have been...."

Resolution: Minor typos and consistency with figures.
Revised Text: In pages 600 (Composite state) in the paragraph on composite state, add after the first
sentence: “In Figure 387, state CourseAttempt is an example of a composite state with a
single region, where state “Studying” is a composite state that contains 3 regions”.
page 613. change the 2 nd sentence to: “Entry and exit points may be shown on the frame
or within the state graph. Figure 389 is an example of a state machine defined with an
exit point shown within the state graph. Figure 390 shows the same state machine using a
notation shown on the frame of the state machine.”
- In sentence under Exiting an orthogonal state (p 606), change "is" in last sentence to
"are."
Editor’s note: fixed in formal copy edit
- Under Composite state (pg 609) Upper case Decomposition compartment.
Editor’s note: not done; this would make it inconsistent with other lists in the same
section, which are not capitalized
- Page 606, first paragraph, change "il defined" to "ill defined."
Editor’s note: fixed in formal copy edit (as ‘ill-defined’)
- Page 612, under Examples, change "sub state machine" to "submachine state."  - Page 614, first line, change "In Figure 391 this state machine" to "In Figure 391 the
state machine of figure 389 an figure 390."
- Page 614, first line of Rationale, change "Submachine states...has been..." to "State
machines...have been...."
Editor’s note: fixed in formal copy edit
