Conference on Complex Systems 2016 in Amsterdam
Amsterdam | Beurs Van Berlage • 21 Sep 2016
The Conference on Complex Systems (CCS) has become a major venue for the Complex Systems community since 2003. This year the CCS is being held in Amsterdam. A special satellite session will be hosted on complexity science for boosting security by Dr A.I. Barros from TNO.
This satellite session addresses complexity science applications in the area of security. Due to the interconnectivity trend our society is becoming more vulnerable to the actions of covert organisations (criminal, terrorist or insurgent). This satellite session will discuss how complexity science can effectively help address these security challenges and make the world a safer place.
The contents of the satellite session is clustered in three blocks addressing current issues like understanding and countering immigration flows, challenges in defence operations and cyber security, and how to better understand and counter terrorism and criminality.
The CCS 2016 takes place from 19-22st of September. The Satellite for boosting security takes place on the 21st of September, in a venue yet to be confirmed at the Beurs Van Berlage, Amsterdam.
Contact person for the satellite session: Ana Isabel Barros (TNO)
