This is an article I published on my site. Here is an extract: Finite State Machines are a “universal” concept that can be used practically anywhere and in particular maths, electronic engineering/embedded systems, science, and software engineering. In this particular case we’re using it to model a “document workflow” in software to replace needlessly complex and nested logical states. It’s also worth pointing out that FSM’s can be used to model a wide range of domains. For example, user interfaces can be implemented with them too, for exactly the same reasons I previously listed; to manage complexity and make states and transitions more explicit.
