Abstract

We introduce the notion of a parametrized family (H p ) p∈P of hybrid systems, and consider questions of reachability in the systems H p as the parameter p ranges over P. Under the assumption of a uniform (as p ranges over P) finite bound on the number of discrete transitions associated to the individual systems Hp, the notion of reachability is first-order (in the sense of mathematical logic) and uniform in the parameter p. Techniques from logic can then be used to analyze computational questions associated to the family of systems.
