Mealy, Moore, and Continuous-Time Charts
Select the continuous update method for models that respond to both continuous and discrete mode changes. Use Mealy charts to model finite state machines whose output is a function of current input and the current state. Use Moore charts to model finite state machines whose output depend on only the current state.
