Reachability analysis aims at identifying states reachable by a system within
a given time horizon. This task is known to be computationally expensive for
linear hybrid systems. Reachability analysis works by iteratively applying
continuous and discrete post operators to compute states reachable according to
continuous and discrete dynamics, respectively. In this paper, we enhance both
of these operators and make sure that most of the involved computations are
performed in low-dimensional state space. In particular, we improve the
continuous-post operator by performing computations in high-dimensional state
space only for time intervals relevant for the subsequent application of the
discrete-post operator. Furthermore, the new discrete-post operator performs
low-dimensional computations by leveraging the structure of the guard and
assignment of a considered transition. We illustrate the potential of our
approach on a number of challenging benchmarks.Comment: Accepted at EMSOFT 202
