报告摘要：

In this talk, an introduction to positive systems will be first provided. The main focus will be on the theoretical results for determining the L-infinity gain of positive delay systems. The case with time-varying but bounded delay is considered first. Then unbounded time-varying delay satisfying a linear growth assumption is investigated. A numerical example illustrating the L-infinity gain property of positive delay systems is provided.
