SHS models that find use in several areas (network traffic modeling, networked control systems, distributed estimation, biochemistry, population dynamics in ecosystems) 2. The analysis of SHSs is challenging but there are tools available (stability conditions for linear time-triggered SHS, Lyapunov methods, moment dynamics, linearization, truncations) 3. Lots of work to be done: theory stability/robustness/performance of SHSs networked control systems protocol design to optimize performance & minimize communication resources biology quantitative study of common motifs (modules) in systems biology study of spatial processes other applications 44
