Description Matthew Khouzam CLA 2017-09-22 07:15:28 EDT 
Here is a list of states from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_state with their equivalences in the control flow view.

Created

Running <- nothing

User mode -< user made

Kernel mode <- system call

Blocked <- Wait Blocked

Ready/Waiting <- Wait for CPU


Proposed solution: 

Update documentation or add a state machine image to the legend. Perhaps also rename "wait for CPU".
