Abstract
From a modeling point of view it is realistic to model a phenomenon by a dynamic system which incorporates both continuous and discrete times, namely, time as an arbitrary closed set of reals. It is natural to ask whether it is possible to provide a framework which allows us to handle both dynamic systems simultaneously so that we can get some insight and a better understanding of the subtle differences of these two systems.
