Simulation of Uncertain Dynamic Systems Described by Interval Models: A Survey

In this paper, a survey of approaches to interval simulation of uncertain systems is presented. The kind of uncertain systems considered are those described by a model with parameters bounded in intervals. These last years the research of algorithms for simulating these type of systems has been a very active research area. Many researchers coming from different research areas and using different types of approaches have developed different algorithms. In this paper, the main problems and approaches when performing this kind of simulation are presented. The main goal of the paper is to present for the first time all existent approaches together emphasising that since all researchers face the same problem but in different contexts, they are finding the same kind of problems in spite of their different formalisms and methodologies.
