NERCCS 2018: First Northeast Regional Conference on Complex Systems

这次会议的支持有助于组织NERCCS 2018：第一次东北地区复杂系统会议。本次会议将提供一个跨学科的学术交流的研究人员在各种学科谁在复杂的系统，也就是说，许多相互作用的组件组成的系统共享共同利益急需的场所。复杂系统出现在各种各样的学科中，例如社会和组织科学、生物学和医学、计算机科学和数学、工程学和信息技术等。（特别是那些处于职业生涯早期阶段的人）在会议上的发言将特别重要，有助于促进跨学科，多机构的合作，从而促进更强大的科学研究项目和未来的发现。会议日程还将包括一个为期一天的教育会议的学生，博士后和初级教师谁是新的复杂系统。NERCCS 2018：第一届东北地区复杂系统会议旨在为复杂系统研究人员建立一个跨学科学术交流的场所，通过演讲和会后在线出版物分享他们的研究成果，与同行建立联系，促进校园间的合作和研究社区的发展。NERCCS 2018将特别关注促进早期职业教师，博士后和学生的专业发展，他们资源有限，但可能在未来几年在复杂系统科学和工程领域发挥主导作用。为了实现这一目标，所有学生/博士后作者的注册费将被免除，他们的论文被接受提交，他们也将有机会在会议结束后在新开发的开放获取在线期刊上免费发表他们的作品。新的在线杂志，东北复杂系统杂志（NEJCS），将与宾厄姆顿大学图书馆合作创建。会议的所有这些特点将有助于系统科学领域的年轻人才的专业成长和保留，他们可能在未来几十年成为美国学术界和工业界的领导者。

This conference support helps the organization of NERCCS 2018: The First Northeast Regional Conference on Complex Systems. This conference will provide a much-needed venue for interdisciplinary scholarly exchange for researchers in a variety of disciplines who share common interests in complex systems, that is, systems made of many interacting components. Complex systems arise in a wide variety of disciplines, such as social and organizational sciences, biology and medicine, computer science and mathematics, engineering and information technology, and so on. Making such an interdisciplinary venue available to researchers (especially those in early stages of their career) at a conference will be particularly important and helpful for the promotion of interdisciplinary, multi-institutional collaborations, leading to stronger scientific research programs and future discoveries. The conference schedule will also include a one-day educational session for students, postdocs and junior faculty who are new to complex systems. NERCCS 2018: The First Northeast Regional Conference on Complex Systems aims to establish a venue of interdisciplinary scholarly exchange for complex systems researchers to share their research outcomes through presentations and post-conference online publications, network with their peers, and promote inter-campus collaboration and the growth of the research community. NERCCS 2018 will particularly focus on facilitating the professional growth of early career faculty, postdocs, and students who have only limited resources but will likely play a leading role in the field of complex systems science and engineering in the coming years. To achieve this objective, registration fees will be waived for all student/postdoc authors whose submissions are accepted for presentation, and they will also receive an opportunity to publish their work after the conference in a newly developed open-access online journal, free of charge. The new online journal, Northeast Journal of Complex Systems (NEJCS), will be created in collaboration with the Binghamton University Library. All of these features of the conference will contribute to the professional growth and retention of those young talents in system sciences, who will likely become the leaders of US academia and industries in the next decades.
