Hierarchical Hybrid Control: A Case Study

A case study of the difficulties associated with the design of hybrid control systems is presented. The authors use the Intelligent Vehicle Highway System (IVHS) architecture, a system that involves both continuous state and discrete event controllers as the example of a hierarchical hybrid system. The authors point out that even though conventional analysis tools suggest that the proposed design should fulfill certain performance requirements simulation results show that it does not. This as an indication that the conventional tools currently in use for the design and verification of control systems may be inadequate for the design of hierarchical control of hybrid systems.
