Abstract
A cascadable state machine that observes the execution state machine of multiple client applications, aggregates the multiple execution states into a single execution state for the observation object, reports the aggregate execution state through the same execution state machine interface as the client applications, and cascades changes to the execution state machine of the observation object to the client applications.
