1. A method of synthesizing a message sequence chart (MSC) from a communicating finite-state machine (CFSM), comprising:
- transforming the CFSM to a Petri net model;
generating a labeled finite digraph with each path representing a linearization of an occurrence net segment of the Petri net;
decomposing the diagraph into segments;
mapping each segment to a compositional MSC; and
outputting the compositional MSC.

Abstract
Synthesizing a message sequence chart (MSC) from a communicating finite-state machine (CFSM), by transforming the CFSM to a Petri net model, generating a labeled finite digraph with each path representing a linearization of an occurrence net segment of the Petri net, decomposing the diagraph into segments, and mapping where each segment to a compositional MSC.
