Abstract

In this talk, we examine static analysis techniques for continuous-time dynamical systems. Continuous time systems arise in many domains including engineered control systems, physical and biological systems. They are increasingly of interest to the static analysis community, due to the focus on hybrid (cyber-physical) systems that capture discrete programs interacting with a continuous external environment. We examine two types of properties that are typically verified: reachability and stability, and explore parallels between commonly used static analysis approaches and a variety of approaches to prove/disprove reachability and stability properties.
