Assignment

• Problems 10.6 (but not necessarily for a menu-driven software -- could be any other software where FSM can be an appropriate choice) and following additional extensions:
  • Extension 1: Convert the FSM you produced to the other two representations you did not use in the first place.
  • Extension 2: Enhance your FSM to also capture the usage probability information, and discuss possible information sources and ways to collect such usage information.
  • Extension 3: Select a probability threshold, and produce a flat (Musa) OP from your Markov OP above.
• In the paper of Karami and Tian, activity diagrams are used to help maintain the accuracy of Markov OP. What other sources of information you might use to achieve the same goal, and how? Also compare the relative advantages and disadvantages against the Karami-Tian approach.
