1) Draw the primitive flow table based on the state diagram

2) Use the implication chart if possible to reduce the flow table

3) Use merging process to see whether the the states can be merged if possible further reduce the flow table

4) Draw the merger diagram to decide the merge group MC

5) Make or draw the merged flow table
