Hybrid Systems: Computation and Control

Klappentext

These are the proceedings of the 9th International Workshop on Hybrid Systems: Computation and Control, HSCC 2006, March 2006. 39 revised papers are presented together with the abstracts of 3 invited talks. The focus is on modeling, analysis, and implementation of dynamic and reactive systems involving both discrete and continuous behaviors. Topics addressed include tools for analysis and verification, control and optimization, modeling, engineering applications, and new directions in language support and implementation.
