Call for Papers
Complexity Theory and Its Applications to Systems, Networks and Information 
Assurance

Amit Kulkarni and Stephen Bush are organizing a special session for following 
conference titled
"Complexity Theory and its Applications to Systems, Networks and Information 
Assurance".

The goal of this session is to bridge the gap among the large and growing body 
of work in the theory
of information and discuss its applications to the health, management, and 
security of information
systems. Examples of specific session topics include, but are not limited to, 
the following:

RELEVANT SESSION TOPICS

        

*       Fundamental Relationships Between Computation And Communication 


        

        

*       Controlled Access Of Information, System Vulnerability Detection and 
Policy Enforcement 


        

        

*       Quantification of Security 


        

        

*       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
