This paper addresses the problem of designing secure control for networked multi-agent systems (MASs) under Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks. We propose a constructive design method based on the interaction topology. The MAS with a non-attack communication topology, modeled by quasi-Abelian Cayley graphs subject to DoS attacks, can be represented as a switched system. Using switching theory, we provide easily implementable sufficient conditions for the networked MAS to remain asymptotically stable despite DoS attacks. Our results are applicable to both continuous-time and discrete-time systems, as well as to discrete-time systems with variable steps or systems that combine discrete and continuous times.

This work offers a real-world application for the study of fuzzy dynamic equations. First, we propose the novel concept of granular delta differentiability for fuzzy-valued functions defined on time scales with the help of the relative distance measure fuzzy arithmetic and horizontal membership functions. Then, fundamental foundations of fuzzy calculus on time scales are provided. Discussion on the Malthusian model defined on particular time scales to illustrate the proposed approach is presented.
