Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Control and Information Sciences ((LNCIS,volume 259))

Abstract

The input to state stability (ISS) paradigm is motivated as a generalization of classical linear systems concepts under coordinate changes. A summary is provided of the main theoretical results concerning ISS and related notions of input/output stability and detectability. A bibliography is also included, listing extensions, applications, and other current work.
