Abstract :
Considers the problem of the qualitative analysis of switched flow networks. Such networks can be used to model various flexible manufacturing, communication, and computer systems. We prove that for any network from a quite general class, there exists a limit cycle such that all the trajectories of the system converge to this cycle
