The Journal deals with the
question how complex real life problems can be analyzed and handled with
scientific methods and models. Because such problems most of the time cannot
be handled by one discipline, the journal is interdisciplinary. Contributions
may come from the social and natural sciences that practice interdisciplinary
research of complex problems. In the past articles are published with
topics as 'Policy making for complex problems', 'Participative Model building
in Healthcare', 'Complex System Theory for Analysis of Locomotion', 'Non
Linear Models for Economy', 'From Information to Communication', 'Logistic
Modeling for Complex Situations', 'Computer Simulation of Chaos and Order', 'Evaluation
of Future Predictions'.
The publication of the
Journal will be published once a year. Two referees will review submitted
articles, and on their advice the editors will decide about the publication.We
encourage scientists to illustrate their scientific article with hyperlinks,
pictures or video clips.Occassionally
an
edition with a special theme will be published.
