Abstract:

 

In this talk, methods that we have designed to analyze, verify, and control hybrid systems will be presented.  Emphasis will be placed on the algorithms and software that we are developing for efficient application of these methods. These algorithms are based on approximation techniques for optimization of hybrid systems.  The methods will be presented in the context of two large-scale hybrid systems:  air traffic system analysis and control (with NASA Ames and the Oakland Air Route Traffic Control Center), and the 'reverse engineering' of biological cell networks (with the Stanford Medical School).

 

This is joint work with Keith Amonlirdviman, Ronojoy Ghosh, Ian Mitchell, Alexandre Bayen, and Rodney Teo.
