Abstract

This chapter deals with systems having Markovian jump parameters. There are basically two types of models. The first type describes interconnected systems with Markovian jump parameters for which the problems of stochastic stability and stabilization are examined and a set of feedback controls is conveniently developed. In the second type, we deal with systems with Markov chains exhibiting slow-fast separation. An appropriate averaging and aggregation technique is developed for this purpose.
