This paper is addressed to potential users of HyTech, the Cornell Hybrid Technology Tool, an automatic tool for analyzing hybrid systems. We review the formal technologies that hav...
Abstract. Time progress conditions in hybrid systems are usually speci ed in terms of invariants, predicates characterizing states where time can continuously progress or dually, d...
Ahybrid automatonis a formalmodelfor a mixeddiscrete-continuous system. We classify hybrid automata acoording to what questions about their behavior can be answered algorithmically...
This paper investigates how formal techniques can be used for the analysis and verification of hybrid systems [1,5,7,16] -- systems involving both discrete and continuous behavior....
Visual description techniques are particularly important for the design of hybrid systems because specifications of such systems must usually be discussed between engineers from a ...
Many modern chemical plants have to be modelled as complex hybrid systems consisting of various continuous and event-discrete components. Besides of the modular and easy-to-read s...
Hybrid systems like computer-controlled chemical plants are typical safety critical distributed systems. In present practice, the safety of hybrid systems is guaranteed by hazard ...
We introduce Hybrid Sequence Charts (HySCs) as a visual description technique for communication in hybrid system models. To that end, we adapt a subset of the well-known MSC synta...
Abstract. The algorithmic design of least restrictive controllers for hybrid systems that satisfy reachability specifications has received much attention recently. Despite the imp...
Abstract. In a biological cell, cellular functions and the genetic regulatory apparatus are implemented and controlled by a network of chemical reactions in which regulatory protei...
