N2 - This paper addresses the problem of stability analysis of a class of linear systems with time-varying delays. We develop conditions for robust stability that can be tested using Semidefinite Programming using the Sum of Squares decomposition of multivariate polynomials and the LyapunovKrasovskii theorem. We show how appropriate LyapunovKrasovskii functionals can be constructed algorithmically to prove stability of linear systems with a variation in delay, by using bounds on the size and rate of change of the delay. We also explore the quenching phenomenon, a term used to describe the difference in behaviour between a system with fixed delay and one whose delay varies with time. Numerical examples illustrate changes in the stability window as a function of the bound on the rate of change of delay.
