ECEA 2019 - 5th International Electronic Conference on Entropy and Its Applications (ECEA-5)

You are cordially invited to participate in the 5th International Electronic Conference on Entropy and Its Applications. The conference aims to bring together researchers to present and discuss their recent contributions, without the need for travel. This e-conference is hosted on the MDPI Sciforum platform, which allows online presentation and discussion of participants’ work.
The concept of entropy is key in a broad range of research activities related to the understanding of (complex) dynamic systems, statistical mechanics, and information theory. Entropy also plays a crucial role in many practical applications. This conference aims to bring together researchers of different backgrounds—with a common interest in clarifying the role of entropy in their respective fields—to discuss ideas across different domains and expand their knowledge on the variety of possible applications of entropic methods.
The format of the conference is as follows. After abstract acceptance, the authors of oral contributions will submit a pre-recorded video presentation or series of narrated slides which will be accessible, online, during the entire conference and remain available after the e-conference. Alternatively, there is a track for posters, which will also be made available via the online platform.
In addition, authors are invited to submit a full description of their work (max. 8 pages), optionally along with a PowerPoint presentation and/or poster. Conference papers will be peer-reviewed and, upon acceptance, published in Proceedings. Paper submission is not a requirement for active conference participation.
Finally, authors may submit extended papers to be considered for publication in a Special Issue of Entropy, with a 20% discount on the APC. Entropy is an open-access publication journal of MDPI in the field of entropy and information theory.
