Abstractions of Hybrid Systems for Verification

Safety verification for hybrid systems is a very important issue but also a very complex one. The abstraction is a mean to simplify it by shifting from global considerations to local ones. The aim of this paper is to present an overview of techniques of abstraction of hybrid systems that are commonly used for safety analysis. Reachability approaches related to abstraction for verification are briefly presented.
