Abstract. The integration of statecharts is part of an integration methodology for object oriented views. Statecharts are the most important language for the representation of the behaviour of objects and are used in many object oriented modeling techniques, e.g. in UML ( 23]). In this paper we focus on the situation where the behaviour of an object type is represented in several statecharts, which have to be integrated into a single statechart. The presented approach allows an automatic integration process but gives the designer possibilities to make own decisions to guide the integration process and to achieve qualitative design goals.
