As well known Bounded Model Checking (BMC) for such systems comes down to solve a Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) feasibility problem. We present a SAT based BMC algorithm for automatic verification of PA-DTHSs. Using Counterexample Guided Abstraction Refinement (CEGAR) our algorithm gradually transforms a PA-DTHS verification problem into larger and larger SAT problems. Our experimental results show that our approach can handle PA-DTHSs that are more then 50 times larger than those that can be handled using a MILP solver. %K Model Checking %K Abstraction %K CEGAR %K SAT %K Hybrid Systems %K DTHS %R 10.1007/978-3-540-71493-4_32 %U http://mclab.di.uniroma1.it/publications/papers/papers/Mari2007.pdf %U https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-71493-4_32 %P 399-412
