We consider systems of delay differential equations (DDEs) of the formwith the initial condition. Recently, Torelli [10] introduced a concept of stability for numerical methods applied to dissipative nonlinear systems of DDEs (in some inner product norm), namelyRN-stability, which is the straighforward generalization of the wellknown concept of BN-stability of numerical methods with respect to dissipative systems of ODEs. Dissipativity means that the solutionsandcorresponding to different initial functionsand, respectively, satisfy the inequality $\|y(t)-z(t)\|\leq \max_{x\leq t_0} \|\phi(x)-\psi(x)\|, \ t\geq t_{0}$, and is guaranteed by suitable conditions on the Lipschitz constants of the right-hand side function. A numerical method is said to be RN-stable if it preserves this contractivity property. After showing that, under slightly more stringent hypotheses on the Lipschitz constants and on the delay function, the solutionsandare such that, in this paper we prove that RN-stable continuous Runge-Kutta methods preserve also this asymptotic stability property.
