TL;DR: An approach to verify concurrent C code by automatically extracting a high-level formal model that is suitable for analysis with existing tools is described and implemented as an extension of the CADP toolbox which already provides a variety of analysis modules for several input languages using labeled transition systems as the core model.

TL;DR: An extension of Java PathFinder is described, which applies a general methodology which has been successfully used to extend Spin and uses external libraries, such as the Parma Polyhedra Library, to abstract the continuous behavior of the hybrid system.
Abstract: Hybrid systems are characterized by combining discrete and continuous behaviors. Verification of hybrid systems is, in general, a diffcult task due to the potential complexity of the continuous dynamics. Currently, there are different formalisms and tools which are able to analyze specific types of hybrid systems, model checking being one of the most used approaches. In this paper, we describe an extension of Java PathFinder in order to analyze hybrid systems. We apply a general methodology which has been successfully used to extend Spin. This methodology is non-intrusive, and uses external libraries, such as the Parma Polyhedra Library, to abstract the continuous behavior of the hybrid system.
