Intended audience

Students who want to get an overview over the diverse field of hybrid systems.

Contents

The course is based on selected papers presenting different approaches to hybrid systems both in computer science and in control.

Organization

Seminars with presentations by participants. Apart from presentation of one paper, active participation in the other seminars is required including reading the papers. It is required that before each presentation each participant should sen at least one question by email to the presentator, and to the examiners.

An additional 1p is given for test of a tool for hybrid systems including demonstration of an application at one of the course seminars.
