Simple Example
To demonstrate how to determine if a system is time-invariant then consider the two systems:
- System A:
- System B:
Since system A explicitly depends on t outside of and, it is not time-invariant. System B, however, does not depend explicitly on t so it is time-invariant.

Famous quotes containing the word simple:
“Even the simple act that we call “going to visit a person of our acquaintance” is in part an intellectual act. We fill the physical appearance of the person we see with all the notions we have about him, and in the totality of our impressions about him, these notions play the most important role.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
“Let not ambition mock their useful toil,
Their homely joys, and destiny obscure;
Nor grandeur hear with a disdainful smile,
The short and simple annals of the poor.”
—Thomas Gray (1716–1771)
