Dear Categoricians,

I'm wondering if there has been any work  in formalizing statecharts [1]
in categorical terms. If not, do you know of an other algebraic
description of this specification language?
Also, it seems to me that the operationnal semantic STATEMATE of
Statecharts as described in [2] is very coalgebraic in nature. Did
anybody write something about this?

Thank you for any information or pointer,

Matthieu
