Hybrid Systems - Lecture Notes in Computer Science

Marc Notes: Papers presented at a workshop held Oct. 19-21, 1992 at the Technical University, Lyngby, Denmark. Table of Contents: Verifying hybrid systems.- An extended duration calculus for hybrid real-time systems.- Towards refining temporal specifications into hybrid systems.- Hybrid systems in TLA+.- Hybrid models with fairness and distributed clocks.- A compositional approach to the design of hybrid systems.- An approach to the description and analysis of hybrid systems.- Integration Graphs: A class of decidable hybrid systems.- Hybrid automata: An algorithmic approach to the specification and verification of hybrid systems.- Hybrid Systems: the SIGNAL approach.- A dynamical simulation facility for hybrid systems.- Event identification and intelligent hybrid control.- Multiple agent hybrid control architecture.- Models for hybrid systems: Automata, topologies, controllability, observability.- Some remarks about flows in hybrid systems.- Hybrid system modeling and autonomous control systems.- Fault accommodation in feedback control systems.- On formal support for industrial-scale requirements analysis.- A formal approach to computer systems requirements documentation. Publisher Marketing: An introduction to hybrid systems, networks of interacting digital and analog devices. The applications of these systems are also explored, in such areas as computer-aided manufacturing, consumer electronics and control systems for inherently unstable aircraft.
