The main result of the paper consists in graphical necessary and sufficient conditions which ensure the generic discrete mode observability of structured switching descriptor systems. The methods used in the previous studies on the observability of switching linear systems on standard form are not applicable to switching descriptor systems. So, we develop a new approach starting from bipartite ...

time-delays are important components of many dynamical systems that describe coupling or interconnection between dynamics, propagation or transport phenomena, and heredity and competition in population dynamics. the stabilization with time delay in observation or control represents difficult mathematical challenges in the control of distributed parameter systems. it is well-known that the stabi...
