Stability of nonlinear asynchronous systems

In this work, we focus on a class of nonlinear asynchronous systems defined by two different modes of operation, one stable and the other one unstable. The switching between the two modes of operation is driven by external asynchronous events. It is assumed that on any time interval of a given length, the maximum time in which the system evolves in the unstable mode is bounded. This property is given in the form of a rate constraint. Under this assumption, we study the behavior of this class of systems and provide existential results of conditions on this rate constraint under which various types of stability of the origin of the nonlinear asynchronous system can be assured.
