We apply a nonstandard discretization scheme to continuous Volterra integro-differential equations and we show that under this discretization, the necessary and sufficient conditions for uniform asymptotic stability of continuous Volterra integro-differential equations are preserved. Our analysis is based on the notion of resolvent. An example is provided as an application to our theory.
