-### Instructions
-Two independent markdown files are written to illustrate numerical examples of [double integrator](double-integrator-2D/README.md) and [racing car](car-racing/README.md).
+#### Instructions
+The 2D double integrator is assigned to reach the target position at origin while avoiding obstacles. We have three classes for different controllers: `DCLF_DCBF.m` (DCLF-DCBF), `MPC_CBF.m` (MPC-CBF) and `MPC_DC` (MPC-DC), respectively.
 
-### Dependencies
-#### Matlab
+Moreover, to illustrate the performance among them, we have:
+* `main.m`: Run DCLF-DCBF/MPC-CBF/MPC-DC respectively.
+* `analysis_gamma.m`: Run analysis for different hyperparameter $\gamma$.
+* `analysis_horizon.m`: Run analysis for different horizon.
+
+We illustrate the performance between DCLF-DCBF/MPC-DC/MPC-CBF

+#### Dependencies
 The packages needed for running the code are [Yalmip](https://yalmip.github.io/) and [IPOPT](https://projects.coin-or.org/Ipopt/wiki/MatlabInterface).
 
-We also provide the zipped version of precompiled .mex files for IPOPT in the folder `packages` in case you don't have it. Unzip that file and add those .mex files into your MATLAB path.
