Abstract

In this paper we propose a verification method for hybrid systems that is based on a successive elimination of the various system locations involved. Briefly, with each such elimination we compute a weakest precondition (strongest postcondition) on the predecessor (successor) locations such that the property to be proved cannot be violated. Experiments show that this approach is particularly interesting in cases where a standard reachability analysis would require to travel often through some of the given system locations.
