This paper proposes a generic pattern to structure the mode logic such that additions, modifications, and removal of behaviors could be done in a quick and localized fashion without losing model integrity. The authors illustrate the proposed pattern using the infusion pump as a case study and describe a design pattern for the mode logic of reactive systems that allows for flexible, understandable, and maintainable models.Design Considerations for Modeling Modes in Cyber-Physical SystemsReport
