EXYSTENCE :: The Complex Systems Network of Excellence
EXYSTENCE :: The Complex Systems Network of Excellence
"Project Summary
Objectives of the NoE are: 1)Improve the viability of complexity theory methods in scientific disciplines as well as in business and socio-economic applications fostering at the same time its development at basic level. The NoE aims to the widest circulation of ideas, establishing a creative environment that give rise to novel conceptual advances and to effective applications. 2)Disseminate knowledge, across the communities of: computer scientists, physicists, technologists, mathematicians, biologists on one side and business and administration, industry and government agencies on the other. Information will be made available through electronic communication channels. 3)Assess where the body of knowledge stands now, what has still to be done identifying the practicable ways forward and what are relevant fields of applications, in view of the gap, still large, between the conceptual and the operational levels between the different rooting complexity has in the natural sciences and in the socio-economic environment. In particular in the context of IST this NoE aims on the one hand to putting forward the strong links between complexity and information theory, on the other hand to fostering a better understanding of what implications developments in IT will have on the societal structure."
