About SCCS 2025

Complexity Science and Chaos Theory are fascinating fields of research with wide-ranging applications. Their interdisciplinary nature and ubiquity motivate scientists to develop general theoretical tools and frameworks. Complex systems exhibit emergent behaviors, leading to novel and intriguing phenomena in science, engineering, and socio-economic studies.

Symposium Overview

The primary aim of the Symposia on Chaos and Complex Systems (SCCS) is to provide a vivid forum for scientists, engineers, economists, and social scientists to discuss the latest insights and challenges related to nonlinear dynamics and their interdisciplinary applications, complex systems and Artificial Intelligence approaches driven by nonlinear systems.

SCCS 2025

The "6th International Interdisciplinary Chaos Symposium on Chaos and Complex Systems," will be held from May 8th to 10th, 2025, in Istanbul, Turkey, has expanded its scope to include a diverse range of topics, from nonlinear systems and timeseries analysis to complex networks and the contribution of complexity in Artificial Intelligence. During the days of the Symposium several several keynotes of broad interest, round tables, workshops, and oral presentations will appear, covering recent advances and challenges ahead.

Publication Details

  • The Proceedings of SCCS 2025 will be published by Springer-Nature Online submission includes one-page abstracts using the Conference portal. The abstracts of the accepted papers will be included in the SCCS 2025 Conference Book of Abstracts. Authors will have the option of submitting full-length papers for publication consideration as Springer Proceedings papers .These papers will be published in the Springer Nature Complexity Series, and they will be published soon after SCCS 2025.
