The workshop aims to bring together researchers from computer science,  
control engineering and applied mathematics interested in studying  
uncertain systems with hybrid behavior.

Organization
======================

2010 edition organizers:

Manuela Bujorianu   [University of Manchester, UK]
Martin Fränzle      [University of Oldenburg, DE]

Steering Committee:

Prof. David Broomhead    [University of Manchester, UK]
Manuela Bujorianu        [University of Manchester, UK]
Prof. Martin Fränzle     [University of Oldenburg, DE]
André Platzer            [CMU, USA]

======================
Proceedings / topics of interest
======================
The workshop pre-proceedings, consisting of a collection of  
lectures/extended abstracts will appear as an AVACS technical report.  
It is planned that the workshop will be followed by a special issue of  
a journal dedicated to formal verification of probabilistic hybrid  
systems. The topics of interest of this special issue include (but are  
not limited to):
     * new modeling paradigms
     * uncertainty representation
     * control of uncertain systems
     * formal verification of safety properties
     * stochastic models for hybrid systems
     * probabilistic logics for system specification
     * stochastic verification methods
     * performance modeling and verification
     * case studies
