This book mostly results from a selection of papers presented during the
11th IFAC (International Federation of Automatic Control) Workshop on
Time-Delay Systems, which took place in Grenoble, France, February 4 -
6, 2013. During this event, 37 papers were presented. Taking into
account the reviewers' evaluation and the papers' presentation the best
papers have been selected and collected into the present volume. The
authors of 13 selected papers were invited to participate to this book
and provided a more detailed and improved version of the conference
paper. To enrich the book, three more chapters have been included from
specialists on time-delay systems who presented their work during the
52nd IEEE Conference on Decision and Control, which held in December
10 - 13, 2013, at Florence, Italy. The content of the book is divided
into four main parts as follows: Modeling, Stability analysis,
Stabilization and control, and Input-delay systems. Focusing on various
topics of time-delay systems, this book will be interesting for
researchers and graduate students working on control and system theory.
