By constructing different data-sampling principles, which take full consideration of information acquisition at the times t_k and t_k^i. Some new sufficient outer-synchronization criteria are obtained by using the properties of differential-algebraic equations, differential equations(DEs), and integral inequalities. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the superiority of the theoretical results.
