			<abstract>
				<p>This paper considers the control problem of a class of linear hereditary systems subjected to a nonlinear (perhaps) time-varying controller. The absolute stability for a class of nonlinear time-varying controllers are investigated. Sufficient conditions for absolute stability and hyperstability are given.</p>
