Final Call for Papers - Systemics, Cybernetics and Informatics (SCI) 2002
        COMPLEXITY AND ALGORITHMIC INFORMATION THEORY WITH APPLICATION TO SYSTEMS, NETWORKS, 
                                                AND INFORMATION ASSURANCE
Amit B. Kulkarni and Stephen F. Bush (General Electric Global Research Center) are organizing 
a special session for SCI-2002 titled "Complexity Theory and its Applications to Systems, 
Networks and Information Assurance".
This session seeks to consolidate research in the areas of modeling, management, and security in
systems and networks with the large and growing body of work in Complexity and Algorithmic
Information 
Theory. The goal of this session is to compare traditional state-of-the-art methods with new advances
incorporating Complexity-based or Algorithmic Information methods and discuss their applications to
the 
health, management, and security of information systems. We invite you to submit papers to the
session 
on topics that can include, but are not limited to, the following:
EXAMPLE OF RELEVANT SESSION TOPICS:
*	Fundamental Relationships between Computation and Communication 
*	Controlled Access of Information, System Vulnerability Detection and Policy Enforcement
*	Quantification and Security Metrics
*	Self-Organization and Composition of System Solutions 
*	Applications of 'Physics Of Information' to Information Systems 
*	Case Studies Involving the Use of Complexity in Information Systems
*	Advances in Estimation and Measurement of Complexity
*	Novel Definitions of Complexity with Emphasis on Implementation Feasibility and Facilitation
        of System Health
*	Quantitative Comparison and Contrast of Complexity Estimators
If you are interested in contributing a paper to the session, please email [email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]> or [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> the full paper or 
extended abstract by midnight June 30. [Note: new deadline]
