International audienceThis paper presents a framework of multi-model based approach for interconnected components network by finite state machine model. The main concept on which we base our approach is the fact that, in a context of interconnected components, due to the influence of some components named here key-components the system can switch from one mode to another. The influence of these components can be measured by the level of involvement in the switching events. The proposed approach can be applied to embedded systems in which we propose to consider the controller as a part of the system
