A supervisory pitch controller for a model helicopter system is designed and then verified. The design of the supervisory controller is limited by actuator bandwidth, sensor inaccuracies, and the sampling rates. Verification is carried out by induction over the length of an execution of the composed system. The HIOA model makes the inductive proofs tractable by decomposing them into independent discrete and continuous parts. The paper also presents language constructs for specifying HIOAs.}, Biburl = {http://users.crhc.illinois.edu/mitras/research.html}, Crossref = {HSCC2003}, Keywords = {Hybrid systems, Verification}, Pdfurl = {research/2003/paper033.pdf}, Ppturl = {research/presentations/HSCC03.ppt}, Url = {http://www.springerlink.com/content/9vlmduh36103d221/} }
