            Abstract : 
We establish averaging type sufficient conditions for local asymptotic stability for nonlinear time-varying systems. Our main result is based on an extension of the averaging methodology employed in a recent paper by Tsinias and Stamati (published in the same journal), dealing with asymptotic stability for “slow” time-varying systems.
