E C C S ' 10 - European Conference on Complex Systems
Lisbon, September 13-17, 2010
http://eccs2010.eu/

News:
* Submissions deadline extension: March 8, 2010
* Publications: special issues in journals (see http://eccs2010.eu/publications 
  )
* Track descriptions have been updated

The main goal of the ECCS’10 conference is to stimulate and facilitate  
the presentation and
discussion of new ideas, methods, and approaches related to different  
domains, both theoretical
and applied, in the general area of Complex Systems research.

ECCS conferences provide an excellent environment allowing the  
propagation of new ideas to a
large audience, leading to the publication of papers in several  
journals.


++++ SCOPE ++++

The range of domains that ECCS has dealt with, and continues to deal  
with, is diverse, concerning a
  variety of Complex Systems research areas. The ECCS'10 main  
conference is organized in the following tracks:

* Track A: Policy, Planning & Infrastructure - Policymaking; Design  
Processes; Environmental
Decision Making; Management; Construction and Manufacturing; Energy  
and Sustainability; Urban
Planning; Built Environment; Internet; Transport & Power Networks;  
Medical & Health Systems.

* Track B: Collective Human Behaviour and Society - Philosophy of  
Science; Economics & Finance;
  Sociology; Psychology; Game theory.

* Track C: Interacting Populations and Environment - Climate Change;  
Geography; Pollution;
Demography; Ecology; Epidemiology.

* Track D: Complexity and Computer Science - Natural and Pervasive  
Computing; Global
Computing Infrastructure; Swarms and Robot Teams; Mobile and Fleet  
Computing; Graphs and
Neural Networks; Language and Cognition; Collaborative Human Computer  
Networks.

* Track E: From Molecules to Living Systems - Self-assembly & Self- 
organisation; Biochemistry,
Cell Biology, Neuroscience; Systems Biology; Medicine & Physiology.

* Track F: Mathematics and Simulation - Mathematics; Theoretical  
Physics; Modelling; Theory of
Simulation (both numerical mathematics and agent based); Network Theory.


++++ PUBLICATIONS ++++

Accepted papers will be edited in a CD-Rom by the Complex Systems  
Society. The CD-Rom will be
provided to all attainers of the conference.

Also, selected papers will be proposed for publication in ECCS'10  
special issues on the following
journals:

* Advances in Complex System (topical issue to be defined)

* The European Physical Journal B (papers concerning statistical  
physics)

* International Journal of Agent Technologies and Systems (papers  
concerning agent modelling)

* Theory in Biosciences (papers concerning biological systems)

* Foundations of Science (papers concerning philosophy of science)
