Complexity is a bi-monthly cross-disciplinary journal focusing on the rapidly expanding science of complex adaptive systems. The purpose of the journal is to advance the science of complexity. Articles may deal with such methodological themes as chaos genetic algorithms cellular automata neural networks and evolutionary game theory. Papers treating applications in any area of natural science or human endeavor are welcome and especially encouraged are papers integrating conceptual themes and applications that cross traditional disciplinary boundaries. Complexity is not meant to serve as a forum for speculation and vague analogies between words like "chaos " "self-organization " and "emergence" that are often used in completely different ways in science and in daily life.

《復(fù)雜性》是一份雙月刊的跨學(xué)科雜志，專注于快速發(fā)展的復(fù)雜適應(yīng)系統(tǒng)科學(xué)。該雜志的目的是促進(jìn)復(fù)雜性科學(xué)的發(fā)展。文章可能涉及諸如混沌遺傳算法、細(xì)胞自動(dòng)機(jī)、神經(jīng)網(wǎng)絡(luò)和進(jìn)化博弈論等方法論主題。在自然科學(xué)或人類努力的任何領(lǐng)域中處理應(yīng)用程序的論文都是受歡迎的，特別是鼓勵(lì)將概念主題和跨越傳統(tǒng)學(xué)科邊界的應(yīng)用程序集成在一起的論文。復(fù)雜性并不是作為一個(gè)論壇，用來(lái)推測(cè)和模糊類比“混沌”、“自組織”和“涌現(xiàn)”等詞，這些詞在科學(xué)和日常生活中經(jīng)常以完全不同的方式使用。
