Cyber-physical systems (CPSs) combine cyber capabilities, such as computation or communication, with physical capabilities, such as motion or other physical processes. Cars, aircraft, and robots are prime examples, because they move physically in space in a way that is determined by discrete computerized control algorithms. Designing these algorithms is challenging due to their tight coupling with physical behavior, while it is vital that these algorithms be correct because we rely on them for safety-critical tasks.This textbook teaches undergraduate students the core principles behind CPSs. It shows them how to develop models and controls; identify safety specifications and critical properties; reason rigorously about CPS models; leverage multi-dynamical systems compositionality to tame CPS complexity; identify required control constraints; verify CPS models of appropriate scale in logic; and develop an intuition for operational effects.The book is supported with homework exercises, lecture videos, and slides.

This open access book constitutes the proceeding of the 28th International Conference on Automated Deduction, CADE 28, held virtually in July 2021.The 29 full papers and 7 system descriptions presented together with 2 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 76 submissions. CADE is the major forum for the presentation of research in all aspects of automated deduction, including foundations, applications, implementations, and practical experience. The papers are organized in the following topics: Logical foundations; theory and principles; implementation and application; ATP and AI; and system descriptions.

The open access book set LNCS 14933 + 14934 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 26th International Symposium on Formal Methods, FM 2024, which took place in Milan, Italy, in September 2024. The 51 full and 4 short papers included in these proceedings were carefully reviewed and selected from 219 submissions. They also include 2 invited talks in full paper length and 10 tutorial papers. The contributions were organized in topical sections as follows:Part I: Invited papers; fundamentals of formal verification;  foundations; learn and repair; programming languages.- logic and automata; Part II: Tools and case studies; embedded systems track; industry day track; tutorial papers.

This book is dedicated to Professor Ernst--Rüdiger Olderog on the occasion of his 60th birthday. This volume is a reflection on Professor Olderog's contributions to the scientific community. It provides a sample of research ideas that have been influenced directly by Ernst-­Rüdiger Olderog's work. After a laudatio section that provides a brief overview of Ernst-­Rüdiger Olderog's research, the book is comprised of five parts with scientific papers written by colleagues and collaborators of Professor Olderog. The papers address semantics, process algebras, logics for verification, program analysis, and synthesis approaches.

Hybrid systems are models for complex physical systems and have become a widely used concept for understanding their behavior. Many applications are safety-critical, including car, railway, and air traffic control, robotics, physical–chemical process control, and biomedical devices. Hybrid systems analysis studies how we can build computerized controllers for physical systems which are guaranteed to meet their design goals.The author gives a unique, logic-based perspective on hybrid systems analysis. It is the first book that leverages the power of logic for hybrid systems. The author develops a coherent logical approach for systematic hybrid systems analysis, covering its theory, practice, and applications. It is further shown how the developed verification techniques can be used to study air traffic and railway control systems.This book is intended for researchers, postgraduates, and professionals who are interested in hybrid systems analysis, cyberphysical or embedded systems design, logic and theorem proving, or transportation and automation.
