In this paper, the extension of such results will be studied for the more general class of dynamic systems governed by nonnegative matrices. Both the discrete-time and continuous-time case will be investigated. cav_un_auth*0212753 Operations Research 2000 Dresden DE 09.09.2000-12.09.2000 BB E http://hdl.handle.net/11104/0130640 UTIA-B 20010020 2001 2001 Berlin Springer 3-540-41587-4 Operations Research.
