Abstract

Coho is a reachability analysis tool for systems modeled by non-linear, ordinary differential equations. Coho represents high-dimensional objects using projections onto planes corresponding to pairs of variables. This representation is compact and allows efficient algorithms from computational geometry to be exploited while also capturing dependencies in the behaviour of related variables. Reachability is performed by integration where methods from linear programming and linear systems theory are used to bound trajectories emanating from each face of the object. This paper has two contributions: first, we describe the implementation of Coho and, second, we present analysis results obtained by using Coho on several simple models.
