1. Introduction
Hybrid systems which are capable of exhibiting si-
multaneously several kinds of dynamic behavior (e.g.,
continuous-time dynamics, discrete-time dynamics,
jump phenomena, logic commands, and the like) in
different parts of a system are of great current in-
terest (see, e.g., [1]-[9]). Typical examples of such
systems of varying degreesof complexity include com-
puter disk drives [4],transmissions and stepper mo-
tors [3], constrained robotic systems [2], intelligent
