In this paper analysis of interconnected dynamical systems
is considered. A framework for the analysis of the stability
of interconnection is given. The results from Fax and
Murray that studies the SISO-case for a constant interconnection
matrix are genralized to the MIMO-case where
arbitrary interconnection is allowed. The analysis show existness
of a separation principle that is very useful in the
sense of the simplicity for stability analysis. Stability could
be checked graphically using a Nyquist-like criterion. The
problem with time-delays and interconnection variation and
robustness appear to be natural special cases of the general
framework, and hence, simple stability criteria are derived
easly.
