%X This paper is concerned with the problem of robust reliable stabilization of switched nonlinear systems with time-varying delays and delayed switching is investigated. The parameter uncertainties are allowed to be norm-bounded. The switching instants of the controller experience delays with respect to those of the system. The purpose of this problem is to design a reliable state feedback controller such that, for all admissible parameter uncertainties and actuator failure, the system state of the closed-loop system is exponentially stable. We show that the addressed problem can be solved by means of algebraic matrix inequalities. The explicit expression of the desired robust controllers is derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs).
