• UML Transitions link a Resource Atomic State to other State Diagram elements (NSV-10b Resource State Transition Description).
• Function elements can be invoked by a Resource Atomic State: right-click the Resource Atomic State, point to Links, and then click Do Function.
• Resource Operation elements can be invoked by a Resource Atomic State: right-click the Resource Atomic State, point to Links, and then click Do Resource Operation.
• Resource State Machine elements can be invoked by a Resource Atomic State: right-click the Resource Atomic State, point to Links, and then click Do Resource State Machine.
The following sections provide information about how a Resource Sequential State is used in the model.
