Stability of stochastic impulsive differential equations: integrating the cyber and the physical of stochastic systems
According to Newton's second law of motion, we humans describe a dynamical
system with a differential equation, which is naturally discretized into a
difference equation whenever a computer is used. The differential equation is
the physical model in human brains and the difference equation the cyber model
in computers for the dynamical system. The physical model refers to the
dynamical system itself (particularly, a human-designed system) in the physical
world and the cyber model symbolises it in the cyber counterpart. This paper
formulates a hybrid model with impulsive differential equations for the
dynamical system, which integrates its physical model in real world/human
brains and its cyber counterpart in computers. The presented results establish
a theoretic foundation for the scientific study of control and communication in
the animal/human and the machine (Norbert Wiener) in the era of rise of the
machines as well as a systems science for cyber-physical systems (CPS)
