We present a model-checking procedure and its implementation for the automatic veri cation of embedded systems. The system components are described as Hybrid Automata|communicating machines with nite control and real-valued variables that represent continuous environment parameters such as time, pressure, and temperature. The system requirements are speci ed in a temporal logic with stop watches, and veri ed by symbolic xpoint computation. The veri cation procedure|implemented in the Cornell Hybrid Technology Tool, HyTech|applies to hybrid automata whose continuous dynamics is governed by linear constraints on the variables and their derivatives. We illustrate the method and the tool by checking safety, liveness, time-bounded, and duration requirements of digital controllers, schedulers, and distributed algorithms.
