I think opening the discussion page could be useful...

Concept part: The Output is mentioned in the text, but I think it would be worthwhile to include some arrows in the diagramm that expilcitly show where the output is taken from. jonas, Oct 26 2005

Re: Concept part: This is a Moore automaton. Which means that the output is solely dependent on the state (and not on the input). In other words: You can assign an output to each state (as it is mentioned in the text: 0 for states S1 to S3 and 1 for state S4). If you want to include the output in the state machine, you can include them as numbers in the circles of the states (i.e you write S1/0 S2/0 S3/0 S4/1). There are no arrows for the output. Arrows are always only for state transitions. Tamara, Oct 27 2005

I agree in behalf of the arrows (it's been some time since I had Technische Informatik :-) ). I just wanted to make sure that the picture is clear in a way that also biologists with a limited knowledge of FSM get the message immediately. But since there have been some emails today dealing with this issue, i'm sure you guys are taking care of this jonas, Oct 27 2005
