H-infinity and (H) over bar (infinity) controllers for retarded systems are
investigated in this paper. By employing a Razumikhin-type approach, it ca
n be derived that H-infinity and (H) over bar (infinity) controllers can at
tenuate the effects of external disturbances and stabilize closed-loop syst
ems according to L-2 and (L) over bar (2) gain, even with uncertain time-va
rying delays imposed on the states or the control inputs.
