Abstract:
Both industry and the academic world are becoming more and more
interested in techniques to model, analyse, and control complex
systems that contain both analog and logical components. Such systems
are called hybrid systems. Examples of hybrid systems are
telecommunication networks, flexible production systems, parallel
processing systems, traffic networks, and so on. In this paper we
present an overview of some modelling, analysis, and control methods
for hybrid systems, mainly from a systems and control point of view.
All these methods have been studied intensively by the authors of this
paper in the framework of their research projects.
