Hybrid Relations in Isabelle/UTP

We describe our UTP theory of hybrid relations, which extends the relational calculus with continuous variables and differential equations. This enables the use of UTP in modelling and verification of hybrid systems, supported by our mechanisation in Isabelle/UTP. The hybrid relational calculus is built upon the same foundation as the UTP’s theory of reactive processes, which is accomplished through a generalised trace algebra and a model of piecewise-continuous functions. From this foundation, we give semantics to hybrid programs, including ordinary differential equations and preemption, and show how the theory can be used to reason about sequential hybrid systems.
