Abstract: Input-to-State Stability (ISS) has proved to be a valuable concept in the
analysis of robust stability, particularly when applied to the modular analysis of
large-scale interconnected systems. This success has, in turn, led to a proliferation
of related ISS concepts. Some of these concepts can be shown to be qualitatively
equivalent to each other (e.g., ISS and integral-to-integral estimate), while other
concepts can be shown to be distinctly different (e.g., ISS and integral ISS). In this
talk we will discuss these equivalences to elucidate different system properties. We
further provide preliminary results on a generalization of ISS that subsumes many
ISS variants of interest.
Bio: Christopher M. Kellett received the Bachelor of Science in Electrical
Engineering and Mathematics from the University of California, Riverside
and the Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy in Electrical and
Computer Engineering from the University of California, Santa Barbara.
He subsequently held research positions with the Centre Automatique et Systemes
at Ecole des Mines de Paris, the Department of Electrical and Electronic
Engineering at the University of Melbourne, Australia, and the Hamilton Institute
at the National University of Ireland, Maynooth. Since 2006, Chris has been
with the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of
Newcastle, Australia where he is currently an Australian Research Council
Future Fellow. In 2012, Chris was awarded a Humboldt Research Fellowship
funded by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, Germany.
