We present a new high-level programming language, called XGIOTTO, for programming applications with hard real-time constraints. Like its predecessor, XGIOTTO is based on the LET (l...

This paper deals with the IEC 61499 standard. A function block (FB) is an event triggered component and an application is a distributed FBs network on several devices. We consider...
In this article, we show how a behavior based control system for autonomous robots can be modeled as a hybrid automaton, where each node corresponds to a distinct robot behavior. T...
We give a simple proof of the Maximum Principle for smooth hybrid control systems by reducing the hybrid problem to an optimal control problem of Pontryagin type and then by using...
For the practical development of provably correct software for embedded systems the close integration of CASE tools and verification tools is required. This paper describes the co...
