  The paper deals with the global asymptotic stability of general nonlinear
time-delay systems with delay-dependent impulses through the
Lyapunov-Krasovskii method. We derive a unified stability criterion which can
be applied to a variety of impulsive systems. The cases when each of the
continuous dynamics and the impulsive component is either stabilizing or
destabilizing are investigated. Both theoretically and numerically, we
demonstrate that the obtained result is more general than those existing in the
literature.
