The efficient numerical approximations for hyperbolic systems of conservation laws presently examined are obtained by hybridizing simple, accurate centered difference schemes suitable for smooth regions with sophisticated shock-capturing schemes for narrow zones near shocks and other singularities. The present switching strategies, while flexibly allowing independent choice among schemes for different flow regions, are also cautious, as demonstrated by 1D numerical examples. Attention is given to a switching strategy that yields convergence to the entropy solution. 21 refs.
