N2 - This paper addresses the problem of stabilization and output- synchronization for a network of interconnected nonlinear agents, where each agent is assumed to be dissipative with respect to a specified quadratic supply rate which may differ among the agents. Main results concern the characterization and design of the information exchange structure for stabilization. Applying a linear protocol here, the associated interconnection matrix is characterized based on LMI's, as well as on spectral properties. Additionally a synthesis based on LMI's under structural constraints is proposed. The results are validated in simulations.
