State machine for a web framework?
<p>I have recently began learning about state machines, and i have one question: Can the workflow of a web framework be modelled using a finite state machine?</p>

<p>The reason i consider this to be a possibility is that between receiving the request and delivering the informations, there are definitively a set of states (initializing the request, routing the request, dispatching it and displaying the information -  in a very simplified form).</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>
