“…In numerical analysis for stochastic differential equations (SDEs), convergence and stability are the two most important issues [7,8,[15][16][17]20,24,31,33,34]. For SDDEs, most of the existing works on numerical methods handle the cases which are of a constant lag τ and step size h being a fraction of τ [1,3,6,19,25,30]. However, DDEs with time-varying lag (1) and their stochastic counterpart (2) play an important role in engineering modeling.…”
