	abstract = {Increasingly, complex mechatronic systems are beingdesigned to have higher levels of autonomy and
intelligence. This requires them to operate in
multiple interaction-states. To facilitate computer-
aided conceptual design of complex mechatronic
systems, this paper provides a framework for
modeling design concepts behind mechatronic
systems with multiple interaction-states. We
introduce the primitives and operators used in the
modeling framework, and illustrate the modeling
process by an example.
