ABSTRACT:
An electronic controller connectible to an external system comprises: a plurality of logical networks each capable of assuming a plurality of different states and arranged according to a hierarchy of different networks according to a hierarchy of different states having a one-to-one mapping between states and networks such that any transition between two states affects the two associate networks and their respective lower-order networks. Each of the logical networks includes a storage element for storing its state, means for determining its next state, and means for receiving control signals from, or for outputting control signals to, the immediately higher level logical network and the immediately lower level logical network for determining their respective states. At least some of the logical networks include means for receiving control signals from, or for outputting control signals to, the external system. The logical networks are disposed on a substrate, which includes a plurality of electrical connections connecting the logical networks to provide the one-to-one mapping between states and networks.
