This conference has two major aims: first, to investigate those properties or characteristics that appear to be common to the very different complex systems now under study; and second, to encourage cross fertilization among the many disciplines involved.

Pedagogical Sessions: The conference will include pedagogical sessions on Sunday, June 9 covering fundamental knowledge in concepts, simulation, and analysis tools relevant to complex systems.

SUBJECT AREAS:
Unifying Themes in Complex Systems

Sessions will be structured around both themes and systems.

The themes are:

• EMERGENCE, STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION: substructure, the relationship of component to collective behavior, the relationship of internal structure to external influence, multiscale structure and dynamics.

• INFORMATICS: structuring, storing, accessing, and distributing information describing complex systems.

• COMPLEXITY: characterizing the amount of information necessary to describe complex systems, and the dynamics of this information.

• DYNAMICS: time series analysis and prediction, chaos, temporal correlations, the time scale of dynamic processes.

• SELF-ORGANIZATION: pattern formation, evolution, development and adaptation.

The system categories are:

• FUNDAMENTALS, PHYSICAL & CHEMICAL SYSTEMS: Spatio-temporal patterns and chaos, fractals, dynamic scaling, non-equilibrium processes, hydrodynamics, glasses, non-linear chemical dynamics, complex fluids, molecular self-organization, information and computation in physical systems, evolution.

• BIO-MOLECULAR & CELLULAR SYSTEMS: Protein and DNA folding, bio-molecular informatics, membranes, cellular response and communication, genetic regulation, gene-cytoplasm interactions, development, cellular differentiation, primitive multicellular organisms, the immune system.

• PHYSIOLOGICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL SYSTEMS: Nervous system, neuro-muscular control, neural network models of brain, cognition, psychofunction, psychological dysfunction, mind control, pattern recognition, learning and development, man-machine interactions.

• ORGANISMS AND POPULATIONS: Population biology, ecosystems, ecology, evolution.

• HUMAN SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC SYSTEMS: Corporate and social structures and dynamics, markets, urban development, the global economy, military systems, global conflict, the Internet.

• ENGINEERED SYSTEMS: Product design, development and manufacturing, nano-technology, modified and hybrid biological organisms, computer based interactive systems, agents, artificial life, artificial intelligence, and robots communication networks, traffic systems, emergent control of distributed systems.
