Journal of Systems Science and Complexity (JSSC) is a bimonthly journal to publish high-quality original and innovative papers on theories, methodologies and applications of systems science and complexity science, as well as insightful survey papers.

It aims to encourage fundamental research of complex systems and complexity, and cultivate cross-disciplinary approaches to help people to understand the common themes that arise in natural, artificial, and social systems. It covers related complexity issues that have been placed at the forefront of many different research fields in science, technology and humanities, such as system optimization and management, complex and control systems, modeling and system biology, information and computer mathematics, etc. Complex systems are especially emphasized.

All related original contributions with rigorous justifications and timely expository papers are welcome from all over the world. The manuscripts should be prepared in accordance with the following instructions.

Authors are encouraged to submit their manuscripts in PDF or Postscript formats by electronic mail to the editorial office of JSSC: {jssc@amss.ac.cn} or submit them online on
