SPECIAL SESSION ON COMPLEX ADAPTIVE SYSTEMS FOR DEFENCE

Session chair: Alex Ryan, DSTO

The special Defence session on Complex Adaptive Systems is an extension of
the Defence Science and Technology Organization (DSTO) Complex Adaptive
Systems in Defence workshops. The DSTO workshops identify emerging
approaches to complex systems with potential defence applications. This is
achieved by fostering interactions between defence, academic and industrial
research sectors to provide collaboration opportunities that can strengthen
both the theory and application of complex systems science. The special
Defence session on Complex Systems promotes these objectives by providing a
refereed forum for novel approaches to complex systems in defence, and an
opportunity for wider interaction with the academic community. Authors
should mention at the time of submission if their papers are submitted to
this special session. All papers submitted to the special session will be
refereed in the same way as those submitted for the main stream. All papers
accepted in the special session will be included in the conference
proceedings.
