TL;DR: This work presents two semidecision procedures for verifying safety properties of piecewiselinear hybrid automata, in which all variables change at constant rates, and demonstrates that for many of the typical workshop examples, the procedures do terminate and thus provide an automatic way for verifying their properties.

TL;DR: HyTech is a symbolic model checker for linear hybrid automata, a subclass of hybrids that can be analyzed automatically by computing with polyhedral state sets that combines automaton transitions for capturing discrete change with differential equations for capturing continuous change.

TL;DR: The model-checking procedure and the implementation of the verification procedure-implemented in the Cornell Hybrid Technology tool, HyTech-applies to hybrid automata whose continuous dynamics is governed by linear constraints on the variables and their derivatives.

TL;DR: A model checking procedure and its implementation for the automatic verification of embedded systems, used to prove digital controllers and distributed algorithms correct in hybrid automata systems.

TL;DR: HyTech is a symbolic model checker for linear hybrid automata, an expressive, yet automatically analyzable, subclass of hybrids, and a key feature of HyTech is its ability to perform parametric analysis, i.e. to determine the values of design parameters for which alinear hybrid automaton satisfies a temporal requirement.
